摘要
目的：探讨前庭训练对自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）高功能儿童听觉记忆和听觉辨别的增强作用。方法：采用准实验前测后测设计，于2024年在德黑兰心理诊所招募20名6-8岁确诊为高功能自闭症的儿童，采用方便抽样方法。参与者被随机分配到实验组（n = 10）和对照组（n = 10），实验组接受前庭训练，对照组不接受干预。听觉辨别采用Weppman听觉辨别测验评估，听觉记忆采用连续性能测试（CPT）软件评估。数据分析采用SPSS version 24的协方差分析（ANCOVA）。结果：实验组与对照组相比，在听觉记忆和听觉辨别方面均有显著改善（p = 0.001），证实了前庭训练的有效性。结论：前庭运动可显著提高高功能ASD患儿的听觉加工能力。这些结果强调了将基于前庭的干预纳入旨在增强自闭症儿童沟通和认知结果的治疗方案的潜在益处。
The effectiveness of vestibular exercises in enhancing auditory memory and discrimination in high-functioning children with autism.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of vestibular exercises in enhancing auditory memory and auditory discrimination in high-functioning children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Methods: Employing a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design, the study recruited 20 children aged 6-8 years with confirmed diagnoses of high-functioning autism from psychology clinics in Tehran in 2024, using convenience sampling. Participants were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (n = 10), which underwent vestibular training, or a control group (n = 10) that received no intervention. Auditory discrimination was evaluated using the Weppman Auditory Discrimination Test, while auditory memory was assessed through Continuous Performance Testing (CPT) software. Data analysis was performed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) via SPSS version 24.
Results: The experimental group exhibited statistically significant improvements in both auditory memory and auditory discrimination relative to the control group (p = 0.001), confirming the efficacy of vestibular training.
Conclusion: Vestibular exercises markedly improve auditory processing capacities in high-functioning children with ASD. These results underscore the potential benefit of incorporating vestibular-based interventions into therapeutic protocols aimed at enhancing communication and cognitive outcomes in children on the autism spectrum.
期刊介绍：
Applied Neuropsychology: Child publishes clinical neuropsychological articles concerning assessment, brain functioning and neuroimaging, neuropsychological treatment, and rehabilitation in children. Full-length articles and brief communications are included. Case studies of child patients carefully assessing the nature, course, or treatment of clinical neuropsychological dysfunctions in the context of scientific literature, are suitable. Review manuscripts addressing critical issues are encouraged. Preference is given to papers of clinical relevance to others in the field. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further considerations are peer reviewed by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single-blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
