Autism Spectrum Disorder01:19

Autism Spectrum Disorder

2.0K
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction alongside restrictive and repetitive behaviors or interests. ASD is sometimes accompanied by intellectual impairment.
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.

Language and Cognition

1.0K
Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Language Development

1.1K
Children master language quickly and with relative ease, supported by both biological predisposition and reinforcement. B. F. Skinner (1957) proposed that language is learned through reinforcement, while Noam Chomsky (1965) argued that language acquisition mechanisms are biologically determined.
The critical period for language acquisition suggests that the ability to acquire language is at its peak early in life. As people age, this proficiency decreases. Language development begins very...

Higher Mental Functions of the Brain: Language

4.3K
Language is a system of communication that allows the expression of thoughts, ideas, and feelings. The brain processes language in both hemispheres.
Language formation and comprehension take place in the dominant hemisphere. The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Developmental Pediatrics
  • Audiology

Background:

  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition.
  • Auditory processing is frequently atypical in individuals with ASD.
  • The precise role of Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) in ASD remains under investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the auditory profile across various levels of the auditory system in children with ASD.
  • To determine if CAPD is a core pathology or a comorbidity in ASD.
  • To correlate CAP findings with language delay in children with ASD.

Main Methods:

  • Study included 30 children diagnosed with ASD based on DSM-IV-TR and ADI-R criteria.
  • Comprehensive history taking, physical examination, and language skills assessment were performed.
  • Evoked potentials were utilized to assess auditory system function.

Main Results:

  • Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) is identified as an essential pathology in ASD.
  • Children with ASD exhibit a dysfunctional or immature central auditory nervous system.
  • Auditory system dysfunction was observed at both brainstem and cortical levels.

Conclusions:

  • CAPD is integral to the pathology of autistic disorder.
  • The central auditory nervous system is immature or dysfunctional in children with ASD.
  • Further research is warranted to explore therapeutic interventions targeting auditory processing deficits in ASD.
