Social and Communicative Functioning in Populations with Intellectual Disability: Rethinking Measurement

Social and Communicative Functioning in Populations with Intellectual Disability: A Developmental Perspective, Volume 64 in the International Review of Research in Developmental Disabilities series, focuses on social and communicative functioning with a particular emphasis on people with intellectual disability. The volume brings together international researchers across disciplines to highlight innovative approaches to holistically describe social and communicative abilities in this population including teleassessment, self-report, and community-engaged research designs. Through a lifespan approach, key issues are raised related to social and communicative functioning across a range of communication modalities from infancy through adulthood.
