People with learning disabilities are subject to the same range of psychological disorders as non-learning-disabled groups. Although in the 1970s and 1980s many therapeutic interventions were based on psychological theories of learning, there has recently been a large expansion in the types of therapy on offer. They have included increasingly sophisticated use of models based on learning theory and the incorporation of a diverse range of other therapeutic models.
