Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A cultural-familial intellectual disability is characterized by impaired intellectual functioning that is not caused by any brain damage or genetic disorder. Instead, it is believed to be a result of environmental factors such as poverty, inadequate education, or cultural deprivation. In other words, the disability is thought to be a product of the social and cultural context in which the individual lives, rather than an inherent biological or neurological problem.
