Choose the correct answer from the options given below : 

The correct answer is - A - III, B - I, C - IV, D - II

Key Points

• A. Mental Retardation - III. Intelligence Quotient
  • Mental retardation is characterized by significantly below-average intellectual functioning which is often measured by an Intelligence Quotient (IQ) test.
• B. Learning disabilities - I. Achievement-potential discrepancy
  • Learning disabilities are often identified by a significant discrepancy between a student's achievement and their potential, as measured by intelligence tests.
• C. Autism spectrum disorder - IV. Intelligence Quotient
  • Autism spectrum disorder is a developmental disorder that affects communication and behavior. It can also be associated with varying levels of intelligence which can be measured by an Intelligence Quotient (IQ) test.
• D. Attention-deficit-hyperactivity disorder - II. Impulsive behaviour
  • Attention-deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is characterized by patterns of impulsivity, inattention, and hyperactivity.

Additional Information

• Mental Retardation
  • Refers to intellectual disability involving significant limitations in both intellectual functioning and in adaptive behavior.
  • IQ tests are commonly used to assess the level of cognitive functioning.
• Learning Disabilities
  • Conditions that affect the brain's ability to receive, process, store, and respond to information.
  • Includes dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia.
• Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • A range of neurodevelopmental conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, and communication.
  • Individuals with ASD may have a wide range of intellectual abilities.
• Attention-Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
  • A mental health disorder that includes a combination of persistent problems, such as difficulty sustaining attention, hyperactivity, and impulsive behavior.
  • Often diagnosed in childhood but can continue into adulthood.
