Abstract

Background Few case controlled studies have been published on the behavioural phenotype of Angelman syndrome (AS). Little is yet known about preferences in individuals with AS.Method Preferences for water‐related items and non‐water‐related items were assessed in 27 individuals with AS and two matched groups of participants, one with Down syndrome (DS) and the other with non‐specific intellectual disabilities (NS), using an adapted Dutch version of the Choice Assessment Scale (Matson et al., 1999 Matson J., Bielecki J., Mayville E., Smalls Y., Bamburg J., Baglio C. The development of a reinforcer choice assessment scale for persons with severe and profound mental retardation. Research in Developmental Disabilities 1999; 20: 379–384[Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]).Results Individuals with AS showed a higher preference for water‐related items compared to individuals in both comparison groups, substantiating previous reports which have suggested that individuals with AS are fascinated with water.Conclusions Knowledge about preferences in individuals with AS, especially with regard to water‐related objects and activities, is important in person‐centred planning of daytime activities and training programs for this group.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
