AB In  2001,  the  World  Health  Assembly  endorsed  the  International  Classification  of  Functioning,  Disability,  and  Health  (ICF),  which  represents  a  revision  of  the  International  Classification  of  Impairment,  Disability  and  Health  (ICIDH).  The  ICF  has  moved  from  being  a  "consequence  of  disease"  classification  to  become  a  "components  of  health"  classification.  The  ICF  does  not  model  the  process  of  functioning  and  disability;  instead,  it  provides  a  multi-perspective  approach  to  classification  as  an  interactive  and  evolutionary  process.  Terms  used  in  the  ICF  are  designed  to  be  neutral  in  terms  of  etiology  and  are  designed  to  include  both  positive  and  negative  aspects.
