Communication Abilities and Rett Syndrome.
Woodyatt, Gail; Ozanne, Anne
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v22 n2 p155-73 Jun 1992
The communicative behaviors of 6 girls with Rett syndrome (ages 2-13) were evaluated. Findings indicated that all subjects were at a preintentional level of communication, which was consistent with their profound intellectual disability and their lack of demonstration of "means-end" behavior beyond Piagetian Sensorimotor Stage III.
