Visual Self-Recognition in Autistic Children: Developmental Relationships.
Spiker, Donna; Ricks, Margaret
Child Development, v55 n1 p214-25 Feb 1984
Researchers employing a mirror procedure tested 52 autistic children between 3 and 13 years of age. A total of 36 showed evidence of self-recognition, while 16 gave no clear indications of doing so. Those not recognizing themselves were more likely than those who did to be mute or lacking in communicative speech. (Author/RH)
