Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities

Scope

Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) (Print ISSN: 1934-9491; Online ISSN: 1934-9556) is published by the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD). IDD is a multidisciplinary journal of policy, practices, and perspectives for researchers, policymakers, and other professionals interested in intellectual disability and related developmental disabilities. As a journal with an applied focus, IDD provides a forum for the dissemination of rigorously reviewed, actionable information that is relevant to emerging policies, innovative practices, and transformative concepts. Original research articles may include studies of new teaching approaches, program developments, assessment tools, program evaluation, service utilization, community adjustment and quality of life, public policies and legal issues, and approaches to professional development. AAIDD encourages a diversity of contributions from different traditions of inquiry and disciplines; all studies must meet the criterion of rigor and peer review.
