Research Abstract |
We explored autistic children’s understanding and use of prosody by using experimental methodologies. We found that children with ASD are hard to fixate their gaze at referential target or at speaker’s face immediately after hearing speech prosody. We also found that they have difficulty in controlling prosody to communicate their degree of certainty to others.
