FM auditory trainers may be able to help children with autism process sounds and learn to speak.
This case study describes a child with autism who improved his word productions and some of his social behavior skills by using an FM auditory trainer and watching videos of his parents. The authors believe that these results agree with the theory that people with autism have trouble processing sound and faces at the same time. They believe that such a program could be done simply in the home. They are now testing this approach with a larger group of children.
