Auditory-Motor Mapping Training Facilitates Speech and Word Learning in Tone Language–Speaking Children With Autism: An Early Efficacy Study

Abstract

These data provide the first empirical evidence for adopting the AMMT-based training to facilitate speech and word learning in Mandarin-speaking nonverbal and low-verbal children with autism. This early efficacy study holds promise for improving lexical tone production in Mandarin-speaking children with autism but should be further replicated in larger scale randomized studies.
