Abstract:
Objective:To investigate communication and adaptive function of children with Asperger Syndrome (AS).Methods:The adaptive function of two groups,123 with AS and 23 normal, were investigated with Adaptive Ability Scale for Children; Intelligence were measured with WISC; Communication behaviors of AS children were also investigated. Results:Significant differences were found between the two groups in total score of adaptive abilities and in domains of socialization, communication and self-administration; Abnormal communication behaviors were found in AS children。Conclusion: AS children demonstrated abnormal communication behaviors and deficits in social adaptive abilities.Early diagrosis and intervention can reduce children's adaptive trouble after entering school.
