成人模仿患有自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 的儿童可能会有效促进他们的交流性凝视行为。这项研究将自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 儿童和典型发育 (TD) 儿童的模仿行为与偶然但非模仿的行为进行了比较。要求看护者扮演模仿角色，探讨模仿干预对育儿的影响。结果表明，自闭症谱系障碍儿童注视模仿行为的时间比单纯偶然行为的注视时间更长，而患有TD的儿童无论母亲的干预类型如何，都会凝视母亲。本研究强调了看护者在照顾自闭症儿童时使用模仿的好处。模仿对自闭症儿童的力量表明其在护理人员家庭干预中的治疗应用。
Adult imitation of children with autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) is likely to be effective in facilitating their communicative gaze behaviors. This study compared imitative behaviors to contingent, but not‐imitative, behaviors in children with ASD and those with typical development (TD). The caretakers were asked to play an imitative role to explore the effects of imitation intervention on parenting. The results indicated that children with ASD gazed longer at imitative behaviors than mere contingent behaviors while children with TD gazed at their mother irrespective of her type of intervention. The present study highlights the benefits of caretakers using imitation while caring for children with ASD. The power of imitation for children with ASD suggests its therapeutic application to home‐based intervention by caretakers.
