Question: 1 / 400

What does echolalia indicate?

A healthy processing of information

An essential aspect of acceptance

A form of cognitive dissonance

A potential symptom of various disorders

Echolalia most commonly refers to the repetition of words or phrases that are previously heard. It is often associated with a variety of neurological disorders such as autism, dementia, schizophrenia, and Tourette syndrome. Although it can also occur in individuals without a diagnosed disorder, it is typically seen as a potential symptom of underlying issues with speech, language, or cognitive processing. Therefore, echolalia does not indicate a healthy processing of information or an essential aspect of acceptance, and it is not directly related to cognitive dissonance.
