A Study on Displacement Skills and Problem Behaviors in Intellectually Disabled Children: Variations by Disability Type

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This study examined the differences in displacement skills and problem behaviors between children with varying types of intellectual disability, and explored the correlation between the two variables. Ninety intellectually disabled children who completed the TGMD-2 displacement skills and SDQ assessments were recruited as participants. Analyses using covariance, partial correlation, and multiple linear regression were conducted to investigate the differences and associations. Results revealed that significant differences in displacement skills and problem behaviors existed among children with different types of intellectual disability. Displacement skills and problem behaviors were positively correlated, and displacement skills had predictive effects on problem behaviors in intellectually disabled children. These findings suggest that developing displacement skills in intellectually disabled children may positively influence their accompanying problem behaviors.
