Pretense Awareness Context and Autism: Insights from Conversation Analysis

Auteur: Luke Breland

Gepubliceerd in: Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders | Uitgave 6/2022

Abstract

Utilizing approaches from Conversation Analysis and Interactional Sociolinguistics, this study investigates linguistic resources related to discourse while playing a tabletop roleplaying game, with particular investigation around the discourse of individuals with autism spectrum disorder. The study examines interactions as they take place across three frames that are associated with interaction in this community of practice: the primary frame, the metagaming frame, and the character frame. The study found that the participants with autism frequently violated the stable pretense awareness context that persists across these frames in tabletop roleplaying game discourse. This research has implications for social skills training methods and psychological models of autism symptomatology.
