Developmental Changes of Institutionalized Mentally Retarded Children: A Semilongitudinal Study.

Schlottmann, Robert S.; Anderson, Victor H.

American Journal of Mental Deficiency, v87 n3 p277-81 Nov 1982

Developmental record ratings were obtained for 200 institutionalized mentally retarded children (5-19 years old) over a three-year period. Results indicated that differences in measured intelligence are associated with differences in developmental behavior and that between the ages of 7 and 20 years the relationship is a linear one.
