Bauminger, Nirit
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v32 n4 p283-98 Aug 2002
A study evaluated a 7-month cognitive behavioral intervention for facilitating social-emotional understanding and social interaction of 15 high-functioning children (ages 8-17) with autism. Intervention focused on interpersonal problem solving, affective knowledge, and social interaction. After treatment, children were more likely to initiate social interaction and provided more solutions to problems. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
