Eisenmajer, Richard; Prior, Margot; Leekam, Sue; Wing, Lorna; Ong, Ben; Gould, Judith; Welham, Michael – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 1998
A comparison of 46 language-delayed and 62 normal language onset children examined whether early language delay would predict autistic symptomatology in children diagnosed with autism when young and at an older age. Results found that early language delays predicted more autistic symptomatology when young, but not at an older age. (Author/CR)
