Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The defining feature of intellectual disability is a limitation in adaptive behavior, which includes skills necessary for independent living such as communication, self-care, and social skills, among others. While physical health, creative intelligence, and factor analysis may be related to overall functioning, they are not defining features of intellectual disability.
