Abstract: This study examined gesture use among children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) during a parent-child play task and analyzed their association with scores from the Social Responsiveness Scale-2 (SRS-2). Findings demonstrated notable variability in gesture frequency and social communication. Future research will explore verbal communication behaviors in ASD.
