There have been many lessons learned since the initial description of the condition in humans in 2003.

Mothers' work and education goals were explored in relation to child factors such as language skills and autism characteristics. Lower language skills were associated with lower likelihood of reporting vocational goals.

Here, we present a novel utterance-level processing (ULP) system that 1) extracts utterances from daylong recordings, 2) verifies automated speaker tags using human annotation, and 3) provides vocal maturity metrics unavailable through automated systems. Study 1 examines the reliability and validity of this system in low-risk controls (LRC); Study 2 extends the ULP to children with Angelman syndrome (AS). Results showed that ULP annotations demonstrated high coder agreement across groups. Further, ULP metrics aligned with language assessments for LRC but not AS, perhaps reflecting limitations of language assessments in AS. We argue that ULP increases accuracy, efficiency, and accessibility of detailed vocal analysis for syndromic populations.</p>","PeriodicalId":51508,"journal":{"name":"Ajidd-American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50159240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
