A Multimodal Analysis of Referential Behaviour in Picture-naming Elicited Discourse:With Special Reference to Chinese ASD Children

社会交往障碍是自闭症儿童的核心障碍之一。本文选取浙江省杭州市某自闭症康复治疗中心的八名自闭症儿童,以图片命名诱发话语中的指称行为为切入点,从多模态视角分析这些儿童如何实施这一行为。文章首先从产出视角分析指称语、指称手势或指称目光三种模态的形式及功能,然后分析语料中三种模态如何互动,共同实施指称行为。本研究既有助于加深我们对自闭症儿童交际能力的认识,也可作为后续量化研究的分析框架。

Social interaction impairment is one of the core deficits characterizing children with Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD).Eight ASD children from one rehabilitation center in Hangzhou,Zhejiang Province are chosen for a systematical study of the way in which they perform referential behavior in picture-naming elicited discourse from a multimodal perspective.The paper first analyzes the forms and functions of the three referential modes,namely referential expression,referential gesture and referential gaze;then it analyzes how the three modes interact to perform referential behaviour.This study can not only deepen our understanding of ASD children s communicative ability,but also serve as an analytical framework for future quantitative studies.
