摘要

This article focused on the role of the echoic in testing for and potentially inducing naming. Four subtypes of naming were analyzed: unidirectional naming (UniN), bidirectional naming (BiN), incidental unidirectional naming (Inc-UniN), and incidental bidirectional naming (Inc-BiN). Five autistic participants, aged 4–7 years, were tested for these four subtypes of naming. If a subtype was not present then the participant was retested with an adapted test that included an echoic. This adapted test involved inducing an echoic response from the participant when required to match and point to stimuli. All five participants met the criterion for a subtype of naming following this adapted test that included the echoic. They continued to meet this criterion when the original test was subsequently used with novel stimuli and without the echoic. This article supports previous research that highlights the importance of the echoic to induce naming. The adapted test with the echoic was successful in inducing a subtype of naming for these five participants and it was shown to not require extensive trials. It is discussed whether this adapted test with an echoic should be an initial tactic to induce a subtype of naming before implementing more time-intensive procedures.
