This article was acceptedjor publication April J2, J996 B asic counting skills are prerequisites to a variety of academic and vocational tasks as well as community survival skills (Baroody & Snyder, 1983; Spradlin, Corter, Stevens, & Friedman, 1974). Couming is often the only math skill required in jobs where persons with menral retardation seek employment (Chandler, 1978; Easterday, 1987). If ...

In order to determine whether the central organismic variable of stimulus trace theory, i.e., neural integrity (ni), was more closely related to MA or IQ, comparisons were made between digit span performance of groups who were matched on either MA or CA but who differed in IQ. Differences were found between normal, borderline, and retarded IQ groups matched on CA, but not between those matched ...

Mentally retarded children are who have limitations in intellectual abilities. The classification of mental retardation based on is divided into three classes, namely debil/moron, moderate, and idiot. will step adolescence which be marked by physical changes but not line with their thinking Reproductive health problems arise retardation, especially during menstruation.

Genetic consultation was given to three children with microcephaly, mental retardation, and spastic diplegia.

A plasmid of 45 kb, designated pNOB8, was found in high copy number in a new heterotrophic Sulfolobus isolate, NOB8H2, from Japan. Dissemination of the plasmid occurred in six cultures of nine different Sulfolobus strains when small amounts of the donor were added. These mixed cultures exhibited a high average copy number of the plasmid, between 20 and 40 per chromosome, and showed a marked gro...

Alterations in the genome that lead to changes in DNA sequence copy number are a characteristic of solid tumors and are found in association with developmental abnormalities and/or mental retardation. Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) can be used to detect and map these changes. Recent improvements in the resolution and sensitivity of CGH have been possible through implementation of micro...
