Social Functions in Autistic Children and Interaction with/through Object: A Brief Report

Research output: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

The aim is to analyse the social functions of pointing, of imitation and of joint attention in presence of the object for the autistic children. We have built an ad-hoc observation check-list and we have conducted 43 observations with verbal ASD-affected children aged between 2 years and 6 years. The results show that a better use of the object is correlated to the manifestation of social functions analysed.
