Abstract | Theoretical and practical challenges in implementing a 1992 definition of mental retardation developed by the American Association on Mental Retardation are reviewed, focusing on issues pertaining to preschool children. The definition is found to be problematic with this age group due to elimination of classification levels, limited relevance of adaptive behavior areas, and difficulties delineating kinds and intensities of supports.
