A. Performance in daily activities that require motor coordination is substantially below that expected given the person's chronological age and measured intelligence. This may be manifested by marked delays in achieving motor milestones (e.g., walking, crawling, sitting), dropping things, "clumsiness," poor performance in sports, or poor handwriting.
Developmental Coordination Disorder
R/O neuromuscular d/o, ADHD, mental retardation
sensory integration programs
modified forms of physical education
The scores obtained from standardized individually administered measures of expressive language development are substantially below those obtained from standardized measures of both nonverbal intellectual capacity and receptive language development. The disturbance may be manifest clinically by symptoms that include having a markedly limited vocabulary, making errors in tense, or having difficulty recalling words or producing sentences with developmentally appropriate length or complexity.
Expressive Language Disorder
language therapy
The scores obtained from a battery of standardized individually administered measures of both receptive and expressive language development are substantially below those obtained from standardized measures of nonverbal intellectual capacity. Symptoms include those for Expressive Language Disorder as well as difficulty understanding words, sentences, or specific types of words, such as spatial terms.
Mixed Receptive-Expressive Language Disorder
small,specialized educational setting
Failure to use developmentally expected speech sounds that are appropriate for age and dialect (e.g., errors in sound production, use, representation, or organization such as, but not limited to, substitutions of one sound for another [use of /t/ for target /k/ sound] or omissions of sounds such as final consonants).
Phonological Disorder
(formerly Developmental Articulation Disorder)
speech therapy
Disturbance in the normal fluency and time patterning of speech (inappropriate for the individual's age), characterized by frequent occurrences of one or more of the following:
sound and syllable repetitions
sound prolongations
interjections
broken words (e.g., pauses within a word)
audible or silent blocking (filled or unfilled pauses in speech)
circumlocutions (word substitutions to avoid problematic words)
words produced with an excess of physical tension
monosyllabic whole-word repetitions (e.g., "I-I-I-I see him")
Stuttering
speech therapy, relaxation techniques, breathing exercise
