Abstract
The paper aims to explore the effects of technology on communication strategies of pediatric individuals on the autism spectrum. The construct of autism spectrum disorder itself is a vast, wide spectrum, which includes aspects of autism that are under-researched. Research focuses on the different levels of functioning within the spectrum. The different levels of functioning distinguish developmental abilities, strengths, and limitations in these individuals, and how they may benefit or be disadvantaged from the use of technology. The paper analyzes the effects of technology on children on the spectrum, in addition to focusing on the effects of technology on the specific level of functioning, which will overall determine the efficacy of technology.
