Treatment of Self-Injury in Bainbridge-Ropers Syndrome: Replication and Extensions of Behavioral Assessments

Abstract

Bainbridge-Ropers syndrome (BRPS) is a rare and understudied developmental disorder associated with medical (e.g., sleep disruption) and behavioral (e.g., self-injury) challenges.
