Social skills training for individuals with autism spectrum disorder
(ASD) focuses on improving their ability to navigate social interactions,
understand social cues, and develop meaningful relationships. This training
typically involves various strategies tailored to the individual's needs and
strengths, including:
1. Role-playing: Practicing social scenarios and appropriate responses in
a supportive environment.
2. Social stories: Using visual narratives to teach social expectations
and norms.
3. Video modeling: Watching and imitating social behaviours demonstrated
in videos.
4. Peer-mediated interventions: Engaging in structured activities with
typically developing peers to practice social skills.
5. Group therapy: Participating in group sessions led by trained
therapists to learn and practice social skills in real-time.
6. Direct instruction: Providing explicit teaching of specific social
skills, such as initiating conversations, maintaining eye contact, and
understanding emotions.
Through consistent practice and guidance, individuals with ASD can
improve their social competence and build confidence in social interactions,
ultimately enhancing their quality of life and relationships.
