Issues in the Developmental Approach to Mental Retardation is one of the first books exclusively devoted to applying the theories, findings and approaches used in work with nonretarded children to several types of retarded individuals. It defines the developmental approach and explores theoretical issues as they relate to retarded populations. Problems involving similar sequences of development, cross-domain relations, the environment, and motivation are all discussed, as is the importance of separating the various etiological groups for research and intervention purposes. This book will be of interest to professionals in the fields of psychology, mental retardation and atypical development. It is also suitable for upper-level undergraduate and graduate-level courses in mental retardation, developmental psychology and developmental disabilities.
Issues in the Developmental Approach to Mental Retardation is one of the first books exclusively devoted to applying the theories, findings and approaches used in work with nonretarded children to several types of retarded individuals. The editors and contributors define the developmental approach and explore theoretical issues as they relate to retarded populations. Problems involving similar sequences of development, cross-domain relations, the environment, and motivation are all discussed, as is the importance of separating the various etiological groups for research and intervention purposes. The contributors also examine the nature of development in specific etiological groups; types of retardation that are addressed include: cultural-familial retardation, Down syndrome, fragile X syndrome, autism, and children with sensory and motor handicaps. This significant volume demonstrates how data from nonretarded development can inform work with retarded populations and how findings from children with mental retardation enrich developmental theory.
Presents and critically evaluates available research to determine which practices and approaches are best for retarded individuals and their families. Draws on current knowledge of normal development as source material.

Development and Disabilities offers a 'multi-disability' developmental approach to children with mental retardation, deafness, blindness and motor impairments. The book is divided into three sections. Part I describes the organismic and contextual aspects of modern-day developmental approaches, along with such historical precursors as Werner, Piaget, and Vygotsky. Part II then examines the most interesting aspects of development in each of the four disabilities. For each disability, studies are described that explore the child's development, mother-child interaction, and family work. Part III then draws theoretical and applied implications from these four disabilities. Both similarities and differences are noted in development across disabilities, with the aim of better research and intervention. This book should be of interest to a wide range of researchers and practitioners interested in the development of children with disabilities.

New genetic causes of mental retardation are being discovered at rapid rates--every day more people are diagnosed with specific syndromes. This comprehensive guide identifies characteristics of people with these syndromes to help you understand their behaviors and needs, provide better interventions, and create wider community inclusion. Through easy-to-read, detailed discussions of four major syndromes--Down, Williams, fragile X, and Prader-Willi--you'll learn about genetic causes and implications, cognitive profiles, medical complications, prevalence of these syndromes, speech and language issues, behavioral issues, and basic physical characteristics. You'll also find research-based intervention strategies that help you manage issues related to education, personal relationships, employment, and living arrangements. And you'll get in-depth information on five less researched syndromes: velocardiofacial, Rubinstein-Taybi, Angelman, Smith-Magenis, and 5p- (cri-du-chat). This book provides the solid foundation of knowledge you're looking for to better support individuals with genetic disorders.
Though the tremendous amount of recently-emerged
developmentally-oriented research has produced much progress in
understanding the personality, social, and emotional
characteristics of persons with intellectual disabilities (ID),
there is still much we don't know, and the vast task of precisely
charting functioning in all these areas, while also identifying the
associated fine-tuned, complex, and intertwined questions that crop
up along the way, seems daunting and insurmountable.
