Abnormal brain development or damage at an early age can lead to neurodevelopmental disorders. Within this
group of disorders, some are resolvable with appropriate and timely interventions, either pharmacological or
nonpharmacological, while other disorders are chronic and need to be managed throughout the lifespan.

For this Assignment, you will develop a study guide for an assigned disorder and share it with your colleagues.
In sum, these study guides will be a powerful tool in preparing for your certification exam.

Your Instructor will assign you to a specific neurodevelopmental disorder from the DSM-5-TR.
Research your assigned disorder using the Walden Library. Then, develop an organizational scheme for the
important information about the disorder.

Create a study guide for your assigned disorder. Your study guide should be in the form of an outline with
references, and you should incorporate visual elements such as concept maps, charts, diagrams, images, color
coding, mnemonics, and/or flashcards. Be creative! It should not be in the format of an APA paper. Your guide
should be informed by the DSM-5-TR but also supported by at least three other scholarly resources.

Areas of importance you should address, but are not limited to, are:

Signs and symptoms according to the DSM-5-TR
Differential diagnoses
Incidence
Development and course
Prognosis
Considerations related to culture, gender, age
Pharmacological treatments, including any side effects
Nonpharmacological treatments
Diagnostics and labs
Comorbidities
Legal and ethical considerations
Pertinent patient education considerations

You will need to submit your Assignment to two places: the Week 8 Study Guide discussion forum as an
attachment and the Week 8 Assignment submission link. Although no responses are required in the discussion
forum, collegial discussion is welcome. You are encouraged to utilize your peers’ submitted guides on their
assigned neurodevelopmental disorders for study.
