Oliver, Chris; Petty, Jane; Ruddick, Loraine; Bacarese-Hamilton, Monique – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2012
We evaluated the independent association between adaptive behavior, communication and repetitive or ritualistic behaviors and self-injury, aggression and destructive behavior to identify potential early risk markers for challenging behaviors. Data were collected for 943 children (4-18 years, M = 10.88) with severe intellectual disabilities. Odds…
