Common Developmental Disabilities in Children

Common Developmental Disabilities in Children

Developmental disabilities are impairments in physical, learning, language, or behavioral areas in children. These begin during the developmental period and may impact day-to-day functioning, usually throughout a person’s lifetime.

As a provider of behavior analysis in Florida we usually assess these conditions in children so they can have their needs attended to as soon as possible. Here are some common developmental disabilities in children according to the CDC:

  • Autism spectrum disorder
  • ADHD
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Learning disability
  • Hearing loss or vision impairments

About 1 in 6 or about 17% of children in the United States aged 3-17 have one or more of these developmental disabilities. It is important to have these conditions diagnosed by a behavior analyst as early as possible so that their specific needs can be provided early on. If left untreated, these can lead to maladaptive behavior or other permanent effects of developmental delays.
