Cognitive Development and Language Acquisition in Autistic Children
Journal Title: Science Insights - Year 2022, Vol 41, Issue 6
Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is typically perceived as a social communication and behavioral disability. However, it is a neurodevelopmental or brain-based condition with widespread consequences on cognitive and social-emotional development caused by genetic events that begin before birth. Cognitive functions of a higher level or those requiring integrative processing are disproportionately hampered in ASD. Normal children can learn any existing language based on their environment; however autistic youngsters find it difficult. The exploration of autistic children’s cognitive and language features has been greatly influenced by theoretical models and research approaches.
