| Résumé : |
Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder are often characterized by deficits in social communication skills. While
evidence suggests that intensive individualized interventions can improve aspects of core deficits in Autism Spectrum
Disorder, at present numerous potent barriers exist related to accessing and implementing such interventions.
Researchers are increasingly employing technology to develop more accessible, quantifiable, and individualized
intervention tools to address core vulnerabilities related to autism. The present study describes the development and
preliminary application of a Virtual Reality technology aimed at facilitating improvements in social communication
skills for adolescents with autism. We present preliminary data from the usability study of this technological application
for six adolescents with autism and discuss potential future development and application of adaptive Virtual Reality
technology within an intervention framework. |
