Is it possible that academic intelligence is not affected by this, or is it?

Is intelligence really what we think it is?
It's said that intelligence is largely innate and genetic. But isn't a high IQ actually an indication that the brain is functioning well because it's getting all the essential nutrients it needs? For example, many people are vitamin B12 deficient and have cognitive impairment. If they were to take an IQ test, they would definitely…
Broken foot and nose, what now?
ByCeydaK5
Hey, so I broke my right heel and ankle as well as my nose 2 weeks ago. I broke my nose a year ago, and now it's probably going to get even more crooked and askew…. I had surgery on my foot and now have screws and a frame. This is all too much for…
IQ of 110 at 13?
Hey people. My little cousin just took an IQ test. The result was 110. He's 13. Is that a lot or a little for his age? Does his IQ increase with age? Thanks in advance 🙂
What else can I do about my terrible lies?
Hello, I'm facing a difficult situation in my life. At 19, shortly after graduating, I experienced my first heartbreak when the girl I was in love with didn't return my feelings. Completely broken and emotionally devastated, I desperately sought her attention. To gain their attention, I began to invent many lies about myself to evoke…
What does the AQ mean?
Good day, I took an AQ (autism test) test and it resulted in 31 points? How does that tell you anything? Autistic traits are said to be present starting at 26 points. What exactly does that mean?
Intellectual disability is an euphemism for mental disability. It is mainly used by medical professionals who have no disability as well as themselves.
Spiritually disabled people are struggling to remain their name and NOT being replaced by euphemism.
Hi.
no, intellectual and mental disabilities are not identical. Both terms are associated with cognitive disabilities, but there are differences in their definition and use.
In general, intellectual disability is diagnosed with an IQ test of under 70 and the presence of difficulties in communication, self-responsibility or social interactions.
On the other hand, the term “spiritual disability” refers to a more comprehensive and holistic disability that affects both intellectual and adaptive skills. A mental disability can have various causes, including genetic anomalies, chromosome disorders or trauma.
An intellectual or mentally disabled person is not automatically “bad” in school. Many people can achieve good school performance despite such restrictions.
Cognitive disabilities and school performance are separate aspects. A person may have an intellectual or mental disability, yet may well cut off in certain school areas, while another person without disability may have difficulties in schooling. Every person is unique and it is important to recognise individual strengths and weaknesses and to provide appropriate support.
Unfortunately, your text is full of euphemisms (“impacts”) which the disabled community does not like to see if you talk about yourself as an individual over several people and not just with your own self-description.
As you speak about a group in your text, I ask you to delete the euphemisms and use the correct term ‘prevention’!
Quote from the MSD Manual:
A social stigma is increasingly adhering to the expression of mental disability used earlier, which is why medical professionals are now talking about intellectual disability.
