Offending Behaviour

AbstractThe association between intellectual disability and offending is complex. Recent evidence would suggest that the received wisdom of intellectually disabled persons being more prone to offending is either incorrect or only tells part of the story. Those within the ‘borderline’ intellectual disability range may be more prone to committing sexual and criminal damage offences but those with an IQ less than 50 rarely offend.The offender with intellectual disability shares characteristics with his counterpart from the general population. As with the general population as a whole, offending in this group is often unreported and its recognition is complicated by issues of competence. The lack of validated forensic assessment schedules for this population poses a further challenge. Some general approaches to assessment in this population are discussed. This case report illustrates the difficulties of assessing and managing offending behaviour in an individual with moderate intellectual disability. The challenge of treating offenders with an intellectual disability is immense and requires specialist expertise. Managing such cases in a generic setting is inappropriate and the need for a forensic learning disability service in Ireland is highlighted.

Multiple Probe

In the current study, we examined the effects of response prompting strategies (i.e., constant time delay, system of least prompts) and frames on sentence writing for three participants, ages 7 to 12, with moderate intellectual disability. We used a concurrent multiple probe across behaviors design to evaluate the efficacy of the intervention package and posttest probes to assess generalized responding to untrained stimulation. During intervention, the teacher taught two students to construct sentences using selection-based software and another to generate handwritten responses across three different writing frames (i.e., I want _________, I see _____, The _____ is ______). Our findings suggest that the package was effective and produced variable levels of maintenance and generalized responding for all three participants.

AbstractEarly infantile epileptic encephalopathy-64 (EIEE 64), also called RHOBTB2-related developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE), is caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants (EIEE 64; MIM#618004) in the Rho-related BTB domain-containing protein 2 (RHOBTB2) gene. To date, only 13 cases with RHOBTB2-related DEE have been reported. We add to the literature the 14th case of EIEE 64, identified by whole exome sequencing, caused by a heterozygous pathogenic variant in RHOBTB2 (c.1531C > T), p.Arg511Trp. This additional case supports the main features of RHOBTB2-related DEE: infantile-onset seizures, severe intellectual disability, impaired motor functions, postnatal microcephaly, recurrent status epilepticus, and hemiparesis after seizures.
