The aim of this study was to identify specific social behaviors that differentiate autistic preschoolers from other children at comparable developmental levels. A parent report measure, the Preschool Social Behavior Checklist (PSBC), was developed for this purpose. The PSBC consists of 22 items representing social milestones usually achieved within the first 4 to 5 years of life. Results obtained from a sample of 20 parents of children with autism and 14 parents of children with mental retardation revealed group differences in specific aspects of imaginative play, peer play, and imitation skills. The importance of examining the specific manifestations of social deficits and implications for the diagnosis of autism are discussed.
本研究的目的是确定能将自闭症学龄前儿童与发育水平相当的其他儿童区分开来的特定社会行为。为此开发了一种家长报告测量工具——学龄前社会行为清单（PSBC）。PSBC由22个项目组成，代表通常在生命的前4至5年内达到的社会里程碑。从20名自闭症儿童的家长和14名智力障碍儿童的家长样本中获得的结果显示，在想象性游戏、同伴游戏和模仿技能的特定方面存在组间差异。文中讨论了检查社会缺陷的具体表现对于自闭症诊断的重要性及其意义。
