| About
| The Society for the Study of Behavioural Phenotypes [SSBP] was set up in the United Kingdom in 1987 by a small group of doctors, psychologists and research workers who had been investigating behavioural and emotional aspects of biologically determined syndromes associated with intellectual disability (mental retardation). The impetus for this early research had derived in each case from parent groups. Parents and carers usually said that, of all the problems and worries they had about their disabled relative, it was often unusual or problematic behaviour which they least understood and with which they found it most difficult to cope. Relatives also often said that children with the same disorder seemed to behave in a similar way.
The aims of the SSBP are to share information about behavioural phenotypes, to refine the research methodologies used in their investigation, to facilitate and co-ordinate research, and to disseminate information through publications, workshops and symposia. Advances in our understanding of the organic underpinning and molecular genetics of intellectually disabling syndromes are now creating a need for rigorous study of the associated specific behaviours.
