Explanation of delay disorder

To prepare:

• Review this week’s Learning Resources, considering atypical language and cognitive development broadly.
• Select one language or cognitive delay or disorder (e.g., Down syndrome, specific language impairment, language aphasia, dementia, Alzheimer’s, autism spectrum disorder).
• Search the Walden Library for peer-reviewed articles related to the delay or disorder you selected.

With these thoughts in mind:

By Day 4

Post an explanation of the delay or disorder you selected, including two contributing factors and two characteristics of the delay or disorder. Explain two strategies that could be used to provide support to individuals who have this delay or disorder and/or their caregivers.

Note: Put the name of the delay or disorder you selected in the title of your post.

Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources. Use proper APA format and citations.
