An examination of the psychological and behavioural factors in the development of language retardation in twins.
Using therapeutic intervention, the psychological and behavioural factors in the development of language retardation in two pairs of 4-year-old MZ twins have been examined. Although some factors are common to those found in singletons with language retardation, the factors peculiar to the twin situation are highlighted.
