Abstract:
Objective To explore the impact of different presentations on the image understanding of children with autism. Methods From November, 2016 to March, 2017, 30 pupils with autism aged seven to 14 years in the special education school were observed the understanding of picture, in term of characters, continuations and sequences, and their focus was recorded with the eye tracker. Results The comprehension score was the highest for the picture with cartoon characters, continuous and non-sequential (F=9.99, P<0.001). There was no correlation between the distribution of the focus and comprehension rate (r=0.27, P>0.05). Direct or indirect experience and omiting content did not impact the comprehension rate (t<1.522, P>0.05).Conclusion Compared with strange photos, images of fixed cartoon characters are more conducive to understand for children with autism. Disrupting the order of the picture and omitting some of the sequence do not affect the understanding, which is consistent with the theoretical hypothesis of central insufficiency.
