Channon, Shelley; Charman, Tony; Heap, Jane; Crawford, Sarah; Rios, Patricia
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v31 n5 p461-69 Oct 2001
This study compared the social problem solving skills of 15 adolescents with Asperger's syndrome with 15 typically developing adolescents. Subjects were presented with videotaped scenarios. The Asperger's group showed deficiencies in recounting pertinent facts, generating possible high-quality problem solutions, and selecting optimal and preferred solutions. This group's solutions differed most in social appropriateness. (Contains references.) (DB)
