Effects of Sociodramatic Play Training on Children with Autism.

Thorp, Danielle M.; And Others

Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v25 n3 p265-82 Jun 1995

This study assessed effects of teaching sociodramatic play skills to three children (ages five to nine) with autism. Positive changes were observed in play, language, and social skills. These changes generalized across toys and settings, although little generalization to other play partners occurred. (Author/DB)
