A Study Of Teaching Metaphor Understanding Skill For Children With Autism Using Teaching Package Based On Applied Behavior Analysis

Obstacles to social and communication are one of the core flaws of children with autism.Even children with high-functioning autism who have normal intelligence often interact with others in a single,repetitive manner and understand non-literal language.Such as metaphor,joke,irony,satire and other aspects are very difficult,and then affect their adaptability in interpersonal communication.Enhancing the ability of children with autism to understand metaphors helps children with autism understand other people's thoughts,feelings,and intentions,and use this ability to predict other people's behaviors,helps establish and maintain peer relationships,and facilitate the integration of education for autistic children Learning and living better.The purpose of this study was to explore the application of instructional teaching packages based on the application of applied behavioral analysis.Children with autism understand the immediate,sustained and generalized metaphorical effects.The research method adopts a single subject experiment design to design cross-examination trials for mid-span participants.The research object is three children with autism in the5-8-year-old fusion education environment.The independent variables are teaching package based on the application of applied behavior analysis as the basic principle,the dependent variable is the learning effectiveness.The research data is mainly analyzed by visual analysis,descriptive statistics,scorer consistency reliability and social validity analysis.Research results show that the teaching strategies based on application behavior analysis have better immediate,sustained,and effective teaching effects on the understanding of metaphorical abilities of children with autism.They also have good social validity.In addition,according to the research results,the researcher discusses the effects of teaching,the differences in the learning of the two metaphor types,and the causes ofthe loss of case 3.At the same time,suggestions proposed for future related research and teaching,hoping to provide some reference for future research and teaching work.
