Autistic children have been stereotyped as noncommunicative and noninteractive; however, this may be partly attributed to traditional research approaches that do not consider the intentions of the child or the context of the social interaction. This discussion reviews some recent investigations that have used a developmental pragmatics framework to study language and communicative behaviors associated with autism. A working model of the ontogeny of communicative functions in autistic children is proposed. The communicative profile associated with autism is explained by factors related to the child's language-learning environment, as well as factors inherent in the child. Clinical implications for the design of language intervention programs for autistic children are offered.
自闭症儿童一直被刻板地认为是不善于沟通和互动的；然而，这可能部分归因于传统的研究方法，这些方法没有考虑到儿童的意图或社交互动的背景。本讨论回顾了一些最近的调查，这些调查使用了发展语用学框架来研究与自闭症相关的语言和沟通行为。提出了一个自闭症儿童沟通功能个体发生的工作模型。与自闭症相关的沟通特征由与儿童语言学习环境相关的因素以及儿童自身固有的因素来解释。还提供了针对自闭症儿童语言干预项目设计的临床意义。
