Echolalia can be present in autism[3] and other developmental disabilities, Tourette syndrome, aphasia, Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome, schizophrenia, Asperger syndrome, Alzheimer's Disease and, occasionally, other forms of psychopathology including Catatonic subtype in Schizophrenia. It is also frequently found in blind or visually impaired children, although most will outgrow this behavior. When done involuntarily, echolalia may be considered a tic. It has been observed after cerebral infarction (stroke).[4] |
