| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Communication with physical contact emerges early in developmental stage, prior to verbal communication. However, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), who frequently exhibit atypical response (e.g., hyper-reactivity) to tactile and other sensory stimuli, may differ from typically developing children in their interpersonal response to such physical contact. The present study attempted to measure the behavioral features of response to tickling as a tactile stimulus including an interpersonal component, in children up to preschool age. In this study, we used quantitative indices to record and measure, such as visual attention while anticipating the other's intentional action, and behavioral responses pattern during tickling. We also measured autonomic nervous system activity prior to tickling tasks. We then examined the relationship between these indices and severity of ASD and sensory features.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究によって、「くすぐり」遊びといった日常的な親子の関わりの中で、着目すべきASD児の行動反応が一部明らかとなった。この様な行動反応の特徴は、自然な対人交流の観察場面における乳幼児期の対人的反応の特性を捉え、療育や治療の効果、そして発達の経時的変化を捉えていくための有用な指標の1つとなることが期待される。ただし、本研究によって得られた成果を、早期からの非言語コミュニケーションの支援に応用していくためには、より多くの対象者のデータに基づき、さらなる検証を行っていくことが不可欠であると考える。
