A diagnostic marker for childhood apraxia of speech: the coefficient of variation ratio.

abstract：:Many studies reported the presence of language impairments in children and adolescents with Klinefelter syndrome (KS). However, the first stage of their language development has been scarcely studied. The present study aimed to describe the spontaneous communicative production of 18-month-old children with KS, in comp...
