This article updates the current conceptualization, measurement, and use of the adaptive behavior construct. Major sections of the article address an understanding of the construct, the current approaches to its measurement, four assessment issues and challenges related to the use of adaptive behavior information for the diagnosis of intellectual disability, and two future issues regarding the relations of adaptive behavior to multidimensional models of personal competence and the distribution of adaptive behavior scores. An understanding of the construct of adaptive behavior and its measurement is critical to clinicians and practitioners in the field because of its role in understanding the phenomenon of intellectual disability, diagnosing a person with intellectual disability, providing a framework for person-referenced education and habilitation goals, and focusing on an essential dimension of human functioning.
本文更新了适应性行为结构的当前概念化、测量和使用。文章的主要部分涉及对该结构的理解、当前的测量方法、与使用适应性行为信息诊断智力障碍相关的四个评估问题和挑战，以及与多维个人能力模型和适应性行为得分分布的关系有关的两个未来问题。对适应性行为结构及其测量的理解对于该领域的临床医生和从业者至关重要，因为它在理解智力障碍现象、诊断智力障碍患者、为个人参考教育和适应目标提供框架以及关注人类功能的基本维度方面发挥着作用。
