Specific developmental disorders (SDD) was a classification of disorders characterized by delayed development in one specific area or areas. [1] [2] [3] [4] Specific developmental disorders were contrasted to pervasive developmental disorders [4] which were characterized by delays in the development of multiple basic functions including socialization and communication. [5]
The tenth revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) has four categories of developmental disorders: specific developmental disorders of speech and language, specific developmental disorders of scholastic skills, specific developmental disorder of motor function, and mixed specific developmental disorder. [2] [6]

In the DSM-IV, specific developmental disorders were no longer grouped together. [9] Instead they were reclassified as communication disorders, learning disorders, and motor skills disorders. [3]
