What are some indicators of an intellectual learning disability?

Intellectual learning disabilities, often referred to as intellectual disabilities (ID) or cognitive impairments, can manifest in various ways and affect individuals differently. Some indicators of an intellectual learning disability may include:

  • Difficulty with Intellectual Functioning
  • Delays in Development Milestones
  • Challenges with Memory and Retention
  • Limited Attention Span
  • Language and Communication Challenges
  • Poor Academic Performance
  • Social and Emotional Difficulties
  • Adaptive Functioning Challenges
  • Co-occurring Conditions


It's important to note that each individual is unique, and the severity of intellectual disabilities can vary widely. Additionally, diagnosis and assessment should be conducted by qualified professionals, such as psychologists, to accurately evaluate intellectual functioning and provide appropiate support and intervention.
