“Intellectual Disability” (ID) is a disorder characterized by significant limitations in both intellectual and adaptive behaviour. These limitations may lead to restrictions in daily life functioning such as learning, communication, self-care, social and practical adaptive skills. ID is manifested during the developmental period of childhood or adolescence. The severity of ID ranges from mild to profound levels.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
