Differences in prosody behavior between individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their typically developing peers have been considered a central feature of ASD since the earliest clinical descriptions of the disorder (e.g., Kanner, 1943/1973). Prosody includes pitch and volume among other dimensions of vocal-verbal behavior that discriminate responses of the listener; thus, people with ASD whose prosody has confusing or off-putting effects may have fewer social opportunities at work, at school, or in the community. The purpose of this review is to examine the state of the literature intervening on prosody with individuals with ASD and to provide recommendations for researchers who are interested in contributing to the scientific understanding of prosody.
自对自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)最早的临床描述以来(例如,坎纳,1943/1973),ASD患者与其发育正常的同龄人在韵律行为上的差异就一直被视为ASD的一个核心特征。韵律包括音高和音量等其他区分听众反应的言语行为维度;因此,韵律具有混淆或令人反感效果的ASD患者在工作、学校或社区中可能会有较少的社交机会。本综述的目的是研究针对ASD患者进行韵律干预的文献现状,并为有兴趣促进对韵律的科学理解的研究人员提供建议。
