Abstract Synopsis

  • The study focused on teaching children with autism how to understand and describe what others are sensing through the five senses, using a natural environment setting.
  • A specific training method involving multiple examples, reinforcement, and error correction was used and shown to be effective, with children generalizing the skill to new situations and people.
  • The authors discuss how this perspective-taking skill could help foster additional social skills like understanding others’ knowledge, predicting behavior, and engaging in adaptive deception for activities like playing games.]
