Read the scenario below and answer the question that follows. Robert was tested and his Wechsler Full Scale IQ was shown to be 65. He has difficulty in school and with reading but seems to do fine with everything else. Based on this information, he would be considered having __________ intellectual disability.

A Full Scale IQ of 65 falls in the range traditionally associated with mild intellectual disability (about 50–70), so the best choice is “a mild.” In real assessments, intellectual disability is not diagnosed from an IQ score alone; adaptive functioning across daily life is also considered.
