  • Title: Awareness and knowledge of fragile X syndrome among special educators.
    Author: Wilson PG, Mazzocco MM.
    Journal: Ment Retard; 1993 Aug; 31(4):221-7. PubMed ID: 8412727.
    Abstract:
    A questionnaire to assess awareness and knowledge of various syndromes was mailed to a random sample of elementary special education teachers in Colorado. Approximately half of the questionnaires were completed and returned. Results indicate that significantly more respondents had knowledge of Down syndrome than of fetal alcohol or fragile X syndromes. Respondents' level of education, date of most recent degree, and years of experience were not associated with greater awareness nor knowledge of fragile X syndrome. Respondents expressed interest in a broad array of fragile X in-service training topics.
