borderline range below average intelligence but not actually retarded Explanation: It means there is some cognitive impairment (below average intelligence) but the person is in a range just above intellectual disability/mental retardation. The jargon term in psychology for someone in this category is "borderline interllectual functioning", corresponding to an IQ of 70-85. It is considered that an IQ below 70 signifies intellectual disability (also known as mental retardation). So someone with 77 lies in the middle of this range. This kind of person is regarded as a "slow learner", and is unlikely to do well in education. A normal or average range is 85-115. See here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_intellectual_functi... (You haven't asked for a Spanish translation, but this is usually known "inteligencia límite" or "función intelectual límite".) http://asociacionenlinea.org/conceptos-inteligencia-limite/ |
