Item type:Publication, Learning Problems in Children With Mild Intellectual Disability(The Association for the development of science, engineering and education, 2018); School failure is one of the more complex, more difficult and unfor-tunately frequent problem that modern school meets. Many factors can cause school failure, such as: child development characteristics, family and school-originated factors. The purpose of the research is analysis of the specific learning problems in students with a mild intellectual disability. For our research we used ACADIA test, which contains 13 subtests for assessing the overall individual functioning. The research involved 144 students. We divided the sample into two groups, children with intellectual disability (our target group) and control group. We found that generally all students with the intellectual disability have special learning problems. According to individual subtests analysis we concluded that the ability for visual association is best developed among these students while on the subtest for auditory memory they achieved worse results. With the analysis of the control group we found that 13.75% of the students have special learning problems. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Language Ability in People With Intellectual Disability(Faculty of Philosophy in Skopje, 2018); It is necessary for children to develop skills for language expression so that they can easily master the curriculum, but also in order to communicate with the environment, to express their attitudes and needs. Children with intellectual disability (ID) are characterized by many changes in developmental abilities, one of those changes is the different language development. The purpose of this paper is to show how intellectual deficit affect language development, i.e. the possibility of forming concepts, and the relationship of this ability with gender and age of the respondents. For the needs of our research, we used the AKADIA test (Atkinson, Johnston and Lindsaz, 1972) - a test for assessing the person's development abilities. We used one of the subtests for assessing the possibility of forming concepts and we adapted it in Macedonian language. We included a sample of 144 students (64 students with ID and 80 students with typical development). Regarding the obtained results, we can conclude that the intellectual deficit negatively affects the possibility of forming concepts, i.e. it makes language development more difficult.
