The article addressed the grammatical and lexical processes in boys with high functioning autism and in a control group of boys who were developing typically. Children with HFA respond faster than TD children when it came to regular past tense verbs with an -ed ending. The article seemed to have been written for SLPs and those interested in autism and morphology.

Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 8(11), 16071621. http://doi.org/10.1016/j.rasd.2014.08.009 Topics addressed: The article addressed the grammatical and lexical processes in boys with high functioning autism (HFA) and in a control group of boys who were developing typically. The study focused on regular and irregular past tense verbs in both groups to find an understanding of morphological awareness in children with HFA. Summary (include question, participants, methods, results) The study looked at the difference in responses from typically developing (TD) children and children with HFA. All of the participants were boys ranging in age from seven to thirteen. The task was done on the computer to limit the social interaction that can sometimes affect results from children who have HFA. Accuracy and response times were documented from both the TD group and the group with HFA. The participants were asked to produce the past tenses of verbs in specific sentences. The verb stems were shown alone and then in a sentence, and finally in a third sentence looking for the past tense version. The study found that children with HFA respond faster than TD children when it came to regular past tense verbs with an ed ending. Children with HFA also produced regular past tense verbs faster than irregular past tense verbs whereas TD children showed no difference in speed. Assess: (follow link for assessment questions) https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/553/03/ The article seemed to have been written for SLPs and those interested in autism and morphology. The article was full of factual information and clearly indicated how the study was done. Information about the size of the brain in relation to autism was discussed, which further confirmed the previous information I have obtained. Overall, the article was straight forward, clearly organized, and written for an audience with a strong background in the development or language. Reflect: (How was this source helpful? How does it change how you think about this topic? How does it support or argue your topic? At first this article didnt seem to be helpful, as it wasnt going into detail about the link between morphology and autism. It mainly talked about past studies and how the difference between regular and irregular past tense verbs had never been looked at. However, I soon found that the study done for this article did exactly that. It helped me to understand that children with HFA are not that far off from TD children but that they do process differently and its much easier for
them to recognize regular past tense verbs rather than irregular. It
supported my topic really well and helped me to better understand morphological awareness in children with HFA. Annotated Bibliography Worksheet CDIS 402 (Adapted from https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/614/01/)
