Speech-generating devices (SGD) can help children with autism do more things with their family.
This study looked to see if SGDs can help children with autism to talk in the home. The authors found that the SGD helped all four children in the study do everything that was measured in the study. The authors found that during mealtime, the family stayed closer to the child with autism when he was using the SGD. During story reading, the SGD allowed the child with autism ask and answer questions about the story. The SGD also allowed the children to talk about their day at school.
