Abstract

social communication represents one of the main areas of impairment in the case of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (APA, 2013). Several studies have investigated predictors in this domain; however, the results are mostly inconsistent or lack clarity. The purpose of this theoretical review is to analyze studies that address vocabulary, prosody, and cognitive flexibility in relation to deficits in pragmatic language, in the case of individuals with ASD. This synthesis was conducted on 18 studies, based on a systematic search of ScienceDirect and NCBI (PubMed and PubMed Central) databases. A number of 1523 participants were included in the analyzed studies. Results indicate that prosody has a major impact on social communication. However, difficulties in processing prosody do not account as the only predictors in the general abilities of language and communication. Regarding the executive functioning, future research is needed to fully understand the relationship between social communication and cognitive flexibility.

自闭症谱系障碍的社会沟通预测因子。理论回顾

社交沟通是自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)患者的主要障碍之一(APA, 2013)。一些研究调查了这一领域的预测因素;然而，结果大多不一致或缺乏清晰度。本理论综述的目的是分析有关ASD患者在语用语言缺陷方面的词汇、韵律和认知灵活性的研究。基于对ScienceDirect和NCBI (PubMed和PubMed Central)数据库的系统检索，对18项研究进行了综合。1523名参与者被纳入分析研究。结果表明，韵律对社会交际有重要影响。然而，韵律处理的困难并不是语言和交际能力的唯一预测因素。在执行功能方面，需要进一步的研究来充分了解社会沟通与认知灵活性之间的关系。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Experimental Psychopathology (EPP) is an open access, peer reviewed, journal focused on publishing cutting-edge original contributions to scientific knowledge in the general area of psychopathology. Although there will be an emphasis on publishing research which has adopted an experimental approach to describing and understanding psychopathology, the journal will also welcome submissions that make significant contributions to knowledge using other empirical methods such as correlational designs, meta-analyses, epidemiological and prospective approaches, and single-case experiments.
