According to the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD), mild intellectual disability is the most common category, accounting for approximately 85% of all intellectual disabilities. This category is characterized by an IQ score between 50-70 and difficulties with adaptive skills, such as communication and daily living skills. The other categories of intellectual disability (moderate, severe, and profound) are less common and associated with greater levels of impairment.
