Description
The purpose of this research was to learn about the selected language skills of individuals with AS through qualitative inquiry. IRB approval was obtained to proceed with the research. A qualitative research method was employed to obtain information from a mother with a son who has Asperger's Syndrome (AS), by means of interview. I also used resources such as books and the internet to assist my study. General information found in books and online, pertaining to AS was included in the literature review. Codes were used to organize information taken from the interview and patterns of family dynamics associated with AS were identified, resulting in assertions about this family's experience.
