verbal scripting?

[Guest guest]

Could someone tell me the defintion of this? Is it different than

echolalia? I hear this being referred to and am never quite certain

what characteristic to assign.

Thanks!

It refers to things like repeating sections of movie dialog often in the voices

of the characters at times other than just after having heard them.

When I use the terms, " scripting " means my son would recite videos

verbatim. " Echolalia " means my son would repeat back to me, what I

had just said to him.

I get the idea now. My son does and did a lot of echolalia as he was

learning language. He doesn't do that anymore, thankfully, but he does

converse with himself. I'll hear him in the back seat like he is

talking to someone sitting beside him. I wasn't sure if that fit in

there somewhere for scripting, because he sounds scripted to me. He

will repeat phrases he has heard me or someone else say, but it is

usually in context (even if it is with himself!)
