Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fact that the intellectual disability is found in siblings suggests a genetic cause. Additionally, lower socio-economic levels do not typically result in intellectual disabilities, and normal physical appearance rules out physical trauma as a cause. While the severity of the disability can vary, it is not necessarily profound enough to require institutionalization.
