Repair Behaviors of Children with and without Mental Retardation.
Scudder, Rosalind R.; Tremain, Deborah Hobbs
Mental Retardation, v30 n5 p277-82 Oct 1992
Communication repair behaviors of 10 children with mental retardation (ages 11-13) and 10 mental age-matched children without mental retardation were examined. The children with mental retardation did not respond as often and rarely used details to expand their utterances. Results have implications for the development of conversational skills in children with mental retardation. (DB)
