Understanding of Others' Intentions in Children with Autism.
Carpenter, Malinda; Pennington, Bruce F.; Rogers, Sally J.
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v31 n6 p589-99 Dec 2001
This study examined the understanding of others' intentions in 21/2- to 5-year-old children with autism and a control group of children with other developmental delays. No significant between-group differences were found, although within-group patterns suggested that children with autism may have a slightly less complex understanding of others' intentions than do other children.
