Development and behaviour was investigated in a sample of 44 children and adults with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS) using the Society for the Study of Behavioural Phenotypes Postal Questionnaire. There were few differences between males and females. Children and adults were compared. Most of the RTS adults communicated using speech but expressive speech was limited. Repetitive speech and repetitive movements, verbal abuse and over-friendliness with strangers were reported. Mood abnormalities and problems with self-injury were reported for about half the people surveyed. Toilet training appeared to take a long time, but the majority of adults surveyed were fully continent.
