Crucial to understanding an individual, presenting with intellectual disability and the management of their challenging behaviours, is the knowledge of the types of those specific behaviours. The term aggressive behaviour is a universal term that embraces many aspects of behaviour that vary in terms of severity, frequency and seriousness for the individual and those around them. Hence, greater consideration regarding intervention, management, person-centred strategies and prevalence and…

Prevalence and types of aggressive behaviour among adults with intellectual disabilities.
TLDR
The capacity to document and assess the types as well as the severity of aggressive behaviour is critical, not only to better understand the correlates of various types of behaviours but also to orient intervention programmes whether they be prevention, assessment, monitoring or management ofaggressive behaviour.
Profiles and correlates of aggressive behaviour among adults with intellectual disabilities.
TLDR
The identification of distinct profiles of aggressive behaviour offers new possibilities for studying risk factors and eventually targeting specific risk prevention strategies.
Incidence, types and characteristics of aggressive behaviour in treatment facilities for adults with mild intellectual disability and severe challenging behaviour.
TLDR
Although approximately half of all clients were involved in aggressive incidents, a small minority of clients were responsible for the majority of incidents, so better management and prevention of aggressive incidents for only a small group of clients could result in a considerable overall reduction ofaggressive incidents in treatment facilities.
A total population study of challenging behaviour in the county of Hedmark, Norway: prevalence, and risk markers.
A survey of the prevalence of stereotypy, self-injury and aggression in children and young adults with Cri du Chat syndrome.
TLDR
It is suggested that specific types of stereotypy and SIB are observed frequently in CCS, and head banging, hitting the head against body parts, self-biting and rumination are the most frequently occurring behaviours.
Measuring severity of challenging behaviours: A behaviour disorder scale
TLDR
It is concluded that scores on the Behaviour Disorder Scale are reliable and can be used in a meaningful way to identify people with intellectual disabilities who exhibit behavioural disorders with different degrees of severity.
Challenging behaviours: prevalence and topographies.
TLDR
Prevalence rates for seriously challenging behaviours were comparable to those reported in the earlier studies, thus confirming previous findings, and the prevalence of less serious challenging behaviour also has major clinical significance.
Identification and description of adults with mental handicaps showing physically aggressive behaviours
Eleven adults showing physically aggressive behaviour were drawn from the population of a small hospital for people with mental handicaps. They were identified by means of Criterion 1, an operational…
Persistence of challenging behaviours in adults with intellectual disability over a period of 11 years.
TLDR
The apparent persistence of serious challenging behaviours highlights the need to identify the factors related to maintenance of these behaviours over time, and other factors, including environmental characteristics, are likely to be related to challenging behaviour persistence.
EPIDEMIOLOGY OF CHALLENGING BEHAVIOUR
TLDR
An age and location profile of the group of people showing more severe problems, in a hypothetical average District, demonstrates a likely increase in the numbers of young adults with challenging behaviour requiring community services, but also suggests that the total numbers of people involved in a given District will be sufficiently small to mean that individualised planning of services is entirely possible.
