Schreck, Kimberly A.; Mulick, James A.
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v30 n2 p127-35 Apr 2000
This study compared parent reports of sleep behaviors of 38 children with autism or pervasive developmental disabilities with those of children with mental retardation alone, in special education but not retarded, or typically developing children. Findings indicated that parent perception of children's sleep difficulties and sleep quality was different for the autistic group. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
