An Analysis of Written Dialogue of Educable Mentally Retarded Writers.
Farley, Jack W.
Education and Training of the Mentally Retarded, v21 n3 p181-91 Sep 1986
Educable mentally retarded students (N=6) made daily dialogue journal entries for 40 days. Analysis of topics, language functions, and syntax revealed that: students produced functionally relevant, interactive communication; topics were more appropriate to chronological (18 years) than mental age (10 years); and written linguistic production was limited.
