Task Effects on Sentence Comprehension in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Evidence from Sentence–Picture-Matching Tests by Maria Andreou, Konstantina Sonia Antoniou, Eleni Peristeri

“…Results showed that autistic children were significantly less accurate in their comprehension performance of passives and clitics in the DVIQ compared to the Syntactic Proficiency Test, with no difference in accuracy observed for subject or object relative clauses, which were consistently high and low, respectively, across both tests. Error patterns also differed across the two tests. More specifically, thematic role reversals in passives were more frequent in the DVIQ than the Syntactic Proficiency Test. …”
