deletion

(

is
a
common
neurogenetic
syndrome
associated
with
high
rates
of
psychosis
.
The
aims
of
the
present
study
were
to
identify
the
unique
temperament
traits
that
characterize
children
with
22

DS
compared
to
children
with
Williams
syndrome
(
WS
)
and
typically
developing
(
TD
)
controls
,
and
to
examine
temperamental
predictors
of
the
emergence
of
psychosis
in
22

The
presence
of
a

evaluated
in

Children
with

scored
higher

compared

Children
with

.
2

and

scored
higher
on
Emotionality

lower
on
Activity
compared
to

controls
.
Shyness
was
more
severe
in
older
compared
to
younger
children
with

Baseline
Shyness
scores
significantly
predicted
the

disorder
at

,
in
children

O
ur
results
suggest
that
shyness
is
an
early
marker
associated
with
the
later
emergence
of
psychosis
in
