Behavior Change. PRO-ED Inc.: Sensory Integration. Video-based Test to Study Language Development in Toddlers and Children with Autism. December 14, 2012 Parents often wonder how much of the world their young children really understand.
Though typically developing children are not able to speak or point to objects on command until they are between eighteen months and two years old, they do provide clues that they understand language as early as the age of one. These clues provide a point of measurement for psychologists interested in language comprehension of toddlers and young children with autism, as demonstrated in a new video-article published in JoVE (Journal of Visualized Experiments).
In the assessment, psychologists track a child's eye movements while they are watching two side by side videos. Children who understand language are more likely to look at the video that the audio corresponds to.
