227:Effective Communication

In this episode, I discuss the silent aspects of communication and the reasons why people with autism find them challenging. I also talk about the idea of "reading the room" and why some people with autism aren't able to do it cognitively, but I also talk to people who can (mostly high functioning). I do, however, offer recommendations and fixes. Additionally, when nonverbal clues like eye contact and body language are employed in place of spoken communication, I experience misunderstandings between two persons. So together let's hear me describe non-speaking communication and how those on the spectrum grasp true communication. https://www.spectrumnews.org/news/social-communication-autism-explained/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fi5GYcqkGBI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLoq2OK-Smk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWmNcRO9tgk http://images.pearsonclinical.com/images/assets/PDDST-II/AutismVisualAugmentativeComm.pdf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIsgPre-TQ0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJOXoxAcB3E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SilhaV1e1x0 https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/06/170615213252.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKnSMTPOT6c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arB1pDlhLyE
