Developmental disorders are a group of childhood conditions that significantly impair personal, social, academic, or occupational functioning. These disorders often manifest early, impacting areas like communication, learning, and social interaction. Examples include intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, and ADHD. Various factors, including genetics, prenatal exposure, birth complications, and environment, can contribute to their development. The rising prevalence may be due to improved detection, broader criteria, or increased incidence.

Treatment typically involves a combination of behavioral interventions, special education, therapy, and medication.
