Quick FYI. I ran across an interesting literature review on children with Williams Syndrome and language abilities (click here to view article). Individuals with WS display a unique configuration of cognitive strengths (e.g., musical ability; language; Ga, Gc) and weaknesses (visual-spatial; quantitative; fluid reasoning; Gv, Gq, Gf).
Upon finding this article I decided to run a keyword search for all articles flagged with WS in the IAP Reference Database. I found many. To not let this search go to waste, I've posted it here for those who want to read more. Enjoy.
