Knowledge is essence of life, through which an
individual can live his life and fulfill his needs, in addition to coping with the surrounding
environment. Knowledge is the base of all human sciences through which a person can get and
satisfy his needs. A child is born having the instinct potentials to learn these potentials are
embodied in visual, handful, auditory, taste, and smell mechanisms. Childhood is a critical stage
concerning with cognitive development; in this stage, a child acquires knowledge and concepts, so,
the basic rules of building the mental framework are set in this stage,
particularly their way of thinking and the intellectual changes occurred on their cognitive
development.
This current study handles with the mentally retarded children through making a comparison between
two categories (mild mentally retarded & moderate mentally retarded children in attempt to
ide4ntify the differences in the cognitive approaches.
This problem emerges from the fact of concerning with cognitive aspects, particularly for mentally
retarded children. Cognitive approaches considers one of the most important concepts and terms
tightly associated with children, particularly those mentally disabled, in order to identify the
traits of the used styles with those children which help determining the appropriate approaches
could be used with this category.
*Study Objectives:
• The study drives at:
o Exploring the differences between mild and moderate mentally disabled children.
o Explore the cognitive styles used with males in the two
categories.
o Explore the cognitive styles used with females in the two categories.
• Study Significance:
This current study acquires its significance from the nature of the topic the research is handling
between the mild and moderate mentally disabled children.
• The Theoretical significance:
It is represented in rare of studies tackle with cognitive styles of children in general and
mentally disabled children in particular, in addition to discussing differences between the two
categories of children.
• The Applied Significance:
Shedding light on nature of the styles the mentally disabled children use, in order to design the
appropriate programs that suit each category’s understanding.
• Study Method:
The current study uses the qualitative comparative method.
• Study Sample:
It consists of (47) mentally disabled children of (mild/moderate) categories, aged from (8-12) year
olds and IQ (52-68) for the mild category while (36-51) regarding the
moderate one. Those children belong to the mental schools in
Sohag governorate.
• Study Tools:
1. Included Shapes Test by Dr. Anwar Al-Sharkawi.
2. Familiar Shapes Mating Test, by Dr. Hamdy Al- Faramawy.
3. Adjusting Behavior Test, by Dr. Safwat Farag.
4. IQStanford Binet Scale.
• Results
1. There are significant statistical differences between average scores of the mild mentally
retarded group and the moderate mentally retarded group regarding the scale of the included shapes.
2. There are significant statistical differences at (0.05) level between average scores of the
mild mentally retarded group and the moderate mentally retarded group regarding the scale of the
familiar shapes, in favor of the mild retardation category.
3. There are significant statistical differences at (0.05) level between average scores of the
male group rather than the female group, regarding the scale of the included shapes, in favor of
the females in the total sample.
4. There are no significant statistical differences between
males and females regarding the scale of the familiar shapes, in the total sample
5. There are significant statistical differences at (0.05) level between average scores of the
male group rather than the female group, regarding the scale of the included shapes, in favor of
the moderate mentally retarded group.
6. There are no significant statistical differences between average scores of the males and the
females regarding the scale of the familiar shapes, in favor of the moderate mentally
retarded group.
7. There are no significant statistical differences between average scores of the males and the
females regarding the scale of the included shapes, in favor of the mild mentally retarded group.
8. . There are no significant statistical differences between average scores of the
males and the females regarding the scale of the familiar shapes, in favor of the mild mentally
retarded group.
