Aman, Michael G.; And Others
American Journal on Mental Retardation, v93 n4 p452-60 Jan 1989
The study of effects of haloperidol drug therapy with 20 institutionalized mentally retarded persons found clinical changes confined to a slight reduction in stereotypic behavior and an increase in gross motor activity under the high dose condition. Subjects with high initial levels of stereotypy showed the best response to the drug. (Author/DB)
