Children were administered a test that was composed of ‘sensorial metaphors’, which are understood by normally developing preschoolers, that the children had to verbally explain. Two normally developing control groups, which were composed of 5- and 6-year olds, were recruited as well, as the highest age for this test is 6 years. A one-way ANOVA applied to the four scores from the test showed a partial delay in the ASD group with respect to the 6-year-old control group, but not with respect to the 5-year-old control group. The ASD group showed some capabilities in metaphor processing; however, there were also some atypical behaviors that suggest that ASD children process metaphorical stimuli in a particular way.

Metaphor and metonymy in ASD children: A critical review from a developmental perspective / Sergio MELOGNO in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-4 (October-December 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 6-4 (October-December 2012) . - p.1289-1296 Titre : Metaphor and metonymy in ASD children: A critical review from a developmental perspective Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sergio MELOGNO, Auteur ; Maria Antonietta PINTO, Auteur ; Gabriel LEVI, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.1289-1296 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Metaphor  Metonymy  ASD children  Development  Review Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The aim of the present article is to critically review the experimental research in the domain of metaphor and metonymy competencies in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) children. After providing some basic definitions of metaphor and metonymy, we consider some major points emerging from studies on metaphorical and metonymical competencies in typical child development. Then, we review a number of emblematic studies concerning the relationship between autism and metaphor and metonymy, starting from the pioneering clinical studies by Kanner and Asperger in the 1940s. We also critically analyze experimental research on these same topics starting from the 1990s. The discussion highlights some major points emerging from recent experimental research and outlines possible perspectives for future research.
