You should respond to the following questions from the end of Chapter 11: 1, 3, 4, 5 and 7. Please type the question first, then respond in complete sentences. You may use information from your casebook, textbook or outside research to answer the questions. 1. Separating children with autism from children with moderate intellectual disability and children with severe learning disorders can be difficult. What symptoms and behaviors would you rely on most to make these distinctions? 3. What recommendations would you make to Mr. and Mrs. Hobson as they care for Jennie at home? What are the major ramifications of Jennie’s condition for the family in general and her siblings in particular? 4. What is the best way to treat people with severe developmental disorders within the public education system? Examine the pros and cons of segregated education and mainstreamed classrooms for all children involved. 5. A key issue in treating people with severe developmental disorders is their “(in)ability “ to give informed consent. Should a person with a severe developmental disorder be subjected to educational, behavioral, or even aversive treatment without their expressed consent? What if the person engages in life-threatening behaviors? 7. Too often, people rely only on intelligence tests to make a diagnosis of intellectual disability. What could you do as a professional to ensure that other methods are used to make this determination?
