Research Abstract

The present research examined effect of cognitive training on cognitive function in children with autism, whose cause would be regarded in mal-function of their pre-frontal lobe. On 2011, two kinds of materials for training which were already confirmed to be effective in activating pre-frontal lobe were constructed, reading aloud and easy arithmetic. In addition, researchers of this investigations visited participants' school to get familiar with them. On 2012 and 2013, training study to two elementary school pupils (grade 2 & 3) was conducted as subjects. Each sesseion was constituted of the task of reading aloud and performing arithmetic. The training was given four or five times a week over one year. As results, FAB test to measure function of pre-frontal lobe indicated that training group showed significant increase from the pre- to the post-test while the control groud did not so. The similar resluts were obtained in inhibitory fucntion and judgement task of facial expressions.
