Maternal Wait Time after Questions for Children with and without Down Syndrome.
Vettel, Jennifer K.; Windsor, Jennifer
Research in Developmental Disabilities, v18 n2 p93-100 Mar-Apr 1997
Maternal wait time after open- and closed-ended questions with eight Down syndrome (DS) and eight language-age (LA) matched peers was investigated. Mothers provided a longer mean wait time for LA children (2.5 seconds) than for DS children (1.8 seconds). These wait times matched well with children's usual response times. No differences for question type were found. (Author/DB)
