Neurodevelopmental Disorders
摘要
Neurodevelopmental disorders encompass a wide range of lifelong disorders that are characterized by developmental delays in motor, language, physical, social, learning, or behavior. These disorders present early in development and impact an individual’s course of development, causing impairments in multiple areas of functioning (e.g., academic, personal, social, occupational). Research indicates that sex and gender are important considerations when considering the diversity and range of presentations in neurodevelopmental disorders.
