Abstract
BACKGROUND: Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are both living longer than in previous generations and experiencing premature aging. Improved understanding of frailty in this aging population may inform community supports and avoid negative outcomes. METHODS: The objective of this study was to review the literature on frailty and IDD and determine areas for future research and application. The methodological framework for a scoping review as developed by H. Arksey and L. O'Malley was applied to identify and select original studies published since 2000. RESULTS: Seventeen studies were identified; these were based on the work of researchers from four research programs. The studies utilized six measures of frailty, including two frailty indices, the VFQ-ID(-R), the frailty phenotype, and the frailty marker. Frailty was equally studied as an outcome and as predictor for other outcomes (e.g., mobility, falls, care intensity, institutionalization, and survival). CONCLUSIONS: There is evidence of a growing interest in the measurement of frailty in aging adults with IDD. As in the general population, frailty in this group is associated with many negative outcomes. While a few measures have emerged, more work is required to replicate results, validate tools, and test the feasibility of applying frailty measures in practice and to inform policy.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
