Three single-subject case studies were used to determine if language skills regress following extended breaks from therapy. Language samples were elicited from three preschool language-impaired males following four alternating periods of therapy and no therapy. The samples, which were analysed for a variety of linguistic measures, indicated that regression usually did not occur following breaks from therapy. In fact, many measures evidenced substantial improvement.
