Abstract
This study investigated whether Chinese children with autism spectrum disorder (n=16, mean age 5;1) categorically perceive consonants (/ba/-/da/ continuum), vowels (/a/-/ɛ/ continuum), and tones (Tone 1 to Tone 2 continuum) with three sound identification tasks as compared with age- and verbal-IQ-matched typically developing children (n=17, mean age 4;9).
