Study Summary
The goal of this early Phase 1 clinical trial is to assess if the social content of a story impacts autistic children's listening comprehension of stories. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does removing social content from a story improve listening comprehension in autistic children? * Does listening comprehension of more social versus less social stories differentially predict performance on a standardized reading comprehension measure? Participants will listen to more social and less social stories while viewing accompanying pictures and answer comprehension questions about the stories and complete a standardized assessment of reading comprehension. In addition, participants complete measures of their nonverbal cognition, hearing status, autism severity, language abilities, and social communication abilities to help characterize individual differences in participants.
Primary Outcome
The Socialness Story Comprehension Task assesses listening comprehension of more and less social stories. Participants listen to stories while looking at picture scenes and then answer three open-ended comprehension questions about each story. The participant is presented with two practice stories first, and then eight main stories. One practice story and four of the main stories are more social. Comprehension questions are scored as correct or incorrect. Participant scores may range from 0% (0
