Selection of target behaviors for individuals with ID has increased alongside understanding of the specific communication disorders associated with various diagnoses. However, it is possible for a person to have both LD and ID. This assumption is a concern when applied to individuals with disabilities in general and to individuals with ID in particular (Casby, 1992; Cole et al., 1990; Notari et al., 1992). These methods are based on behavioral/operant principles of learning; they involve examining the antecedents that elicit a certain behavior, along with the consequences that follow that behavior, and then making adjustments in this chain to increase desired behaviors and/or decrease inappropriate ones. (n.d.). These limitations will cause a child to learn and develop more slowly than a typical child. It includes training in everyday environments and activities, rather than only at therapy time. Children with Down syndrome often have specific limitations in expressive syntax relative to semantics. For example, some individuals with ID may be good candidates for immediate introduction of symbolic communication goals that target acquisition and use of words or symbols. Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 15(2), 4152. https://doi.org/10.1352/1934-9556-57.5.421, Barker, R. M., Sevcik, R. A., Morris, R. D., & Romski, M. A. (2016).

Cultural differences in the attitudes, beliefs, and perceptions of individuals with ID are well documented within the United States and in other countries (Allison & Strydom, 2009; Scior, 2011; WHO, 2010a). As children with ID may have slowed receptive language processing compared to typically developing peers, they may benefit from an increase in frequency and intensity of examples (Ellis Weismer et al., 2017). Parent-mediated/implemented treatment approaches involve partnerships between SLPs, parents/caregivers, and other professionals and communication partners in supporting the natural communication behaviors of individuals with intellectual and other developmental disabilities (Guralnick, 2017; M.
