5 CONCERNING
MENTAL
DISORDERS
AMONG
CHILDREN
Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and psychometric assessments are used to
assess the cognitive and communicative abilities of individuals with developmental disorders such
as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and specific
language impairment (SLI). In some cases, these assessments are used to determine the appropriate
level of support an individual with a developmental disorder requires.
If you are a parent of a child who is developing differently, you have probably been told that there
is something wrong with your child. As a parent, you have probably been told that there is nothing
you can do to help your child improve. However, a psychological assessment can help determine
whether your child has a developmental disorder, which is a condition that is present from birth or
infancy, or if there is something wrong with your interpretation of your child’s behaviors. A
psychological assessment can also help determine the best course of action to help your child reach
their full potential.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder that is present from birth or infancy. The
core features of ASD include challenges with social communication and interaction, as well as repetitive
behaviors and interests. The specific symptoms and challenges that an individual with ASD faces will vary
depending on their age at diagnosis and their gender. However, some of the most common characteristics
of ASD include difficulty understanding non-verbal communication, difficulty interpreting facial
expressions, difficulty sharing interests and emotions with others, and repetitive behaviors such as hand-
flapping or echolalia.
Autism Spectrum Disorder
Speech and language disorders (SLD) refer to disorders that affect a person’s ability to communicate through the
use of language. These disorders can affect speech, language, reading, and writing. Children with speech and
language disorders often do not receive the early intervention services that are critical for their overall
development.
Speech and Language Disorders
Learning disabilities (LD) are disorders of the brain that affect a person’s ability to learn. They are the most
common non-organic learning disabilities. There are two main types of LD: specific and differential.
Specific LD refers to disorders that are present from birth or infancy, while differential LD develops over
time
Learning Disabilities
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that is present
from birth or infancy. The symptoms of ADHD are variable in presentation and can include inattention,
hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Inattention is a core symptom of ADHD and is present in all presentations
of the disorder. In children with ADHD, inattention is characterized by a lack of sustained attention to
details and to the environment.
Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
The symptoms of a global developmental disorder can be present in one area or across multiple areas of
development. The core symptoms of global developmental disorders include delays in the development of
a particular area of development. However, the symptoms of global developmental disorders extend
beyond the core symptoms of the disorder and may include a variety of other symptoms. These other
symptoms are referred to as secondary symptoms of a global developmental disorder and may include a
variety of other signs or symptoms.
Global Developmental Disorder
If you are a parent of a child who is developing
differently, you have probably been told that
there is something wrong with your child. As a
parent, you have probably been told that there is
nothing you can do to help your child improve.
However, a psychological assessment can help
determine whether your child has a
developmental disorder, which is a condition that
is present from birth or infancy, or if there is
something wrong with your interpretation of
your child’s behaviors. A psychological
assessment can also help.
