In this cross-sectional study, we compared metaphor comprehension in individuals with ASD (N?=?29) and individuals with typical development (TD; N?=?31), and investigated the relationship between core language and metaphor comprehension. Individuals with ASD showed more difficulty but also a more variable performance in both metaphor and literal items of the task used than individuals with TD did. This indicates that core language ability accounts for metaphor comprehension and should be considered in future research and interventions aiming to improve metaphor comprehension in individuals with ASD.

Syntax and Morphology in Danish-Speaking Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Cecilia BRYNSKOV in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 47-2 (February 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 47-2 (February 2017) . - p.373-383 Titre : Syntax and Morphology in Danish-Speaking Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Cecilia BRYNSKOV, Auteur ; Inge-Marie EIGSTI, Auteur ; Meta JØRGENSEN, Auteur ; Sanne LEMCKE, Auteur ; Ocke-Schwen BOHN, Auteur ; Peter KRØJGAARD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.373-383 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Vocabulary  Syntax  Morphology  Sentence repetition  Early language delay Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The current study examined delays in syntax and morphology, and vocabulary, in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Children ages 4–6 years with ASD (n?=?21) and typical development (n?=?21), matched on nonverbal mental age, completed five language tasks. The ASD group had significant delays in both syntax and morphology, and vocabulary measures, with significant within-group heterogeneity; furthermore, syntactic and morphological measures were impaired even for subgroups matched on vocabulary. Children in the ASD group without early language delay showed syntactic and morphological impairment, with intact performance on vocabulary and sentence repetition. Findings indicate that syntactic and morphological impairments are a significant concern for high-functioning children with ASD, and may be overlooked if language evaluation focuses exclusively on vocabulary.
