  • Percent of correct comprehension questions for more social stories at baselineBaseline

    The Socialness Story Comprehension Task assesses listening comprehension of more and less social stories. Participants listen to stories while looking at picture scenes and then answer three open-ended comprehension questions about each story. The participant is presented with two practice stories first, and then eight main stories. One practice story and four of the main stories are more social. Comprehension questions are scored as correct or incorrect. Participant scores may range from 0% (0 comprehension questions correct) to 100% (all 12 comprehension question correct). Higher scores are indicative of better comprehension of more social stories.
