Ametepee, Lawrence K.; Chitiyo, Morgan – Journal of the International Association of Special Education, 2009
Aside from Lotter's groundbreaking studies in six African countries, few studies about autism in Africa have been published. The samples in the published studies do not appear to be representative of children in the respective countries. Hence, it is difficult to determine the prevalence rate of the disorder in the countries. However, the studies…

The mediating role of adolescent appraisal in the relation between IPC and adolescent dating behavior was…
