Narrative Ability in High-Functioning Children with Autism or Asperger's Syndrome.
Losh, Molly; Capps, Lisa
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v33 n3 p239-51 Jun 2003
A study examined the narrative abilities of 28 high-functioning children (ages 8-14) with autism or Asperger syndrome and 22 controls across two different discourse contexts. Compared to controls, the subjects performed relatively well in the storybook context but exhibited difficulty imbuing their narratives of personal experience with more sophisticated characteristics.
