Study Results

Background/Objective: Researchers have traditionally reported that individuals with Down syndrome possess a strength in their social development, yet the opposite occurs with Asperger’s syndrome. Based on this premise, we sought to assess effectiveness of the social skills training program. Method: Thirty adolescents aged 11 to 14 years with Down syndrome and Asperger’s syndrome participated in the study. Results: Significant differences between both groups were detected in the posttreatment measures and a connection was found between adolescents’ learning potential and the benefits gained. Conclusions: The training program is effective at improving the social skills under evaluation in adolescents with Down syndrome; however, this benefit is greater among adolescents with Asperger’s syndrome.

A síndrome de Asperger é um transtorno do espectro autista que cursa com comprometimento da socialização, da comunicação verbal e não verbal e da flexibilidade cognitiva e comportamental. A abordagem dessas características pelo treinamento de habilidades sociais (THS), baseado na terapia cognitivocomportamental (TCC), visa melhorar a qualidade de vida e reduzir alguns sintomas psiquiátricos nesses pacientes. Entre as dificuldades abordadas estão: 1) a compreensão social; 2) as regras de interação social e as expectativas interpessoais; 3) a conversa recíproca; 4) o uso e a interpretação das condutas não verbais; 5) o autocontrole; 6) os comportamentos estereotipados e os interesses obsessivos; e 7) a formação de amizades. O presente artigo é uma revisão crítica do tema.

Abstract This article discusses the conversational abilities of children diagnosed with High functioning autism/Asperger’s syndrome in the context of the broader social deficits associated with the disorder and describes how social skills training groups might address conversation skill difficulties in this population. We present a template for how speech-language pathologists might structure a social skills training group to increase conversational responding in children with high functioning autism/Asperger’s syndrome.
