Computer-Assisted Face Processing Instruction Improves Emotion Recognition , Mentalizing , and Social Skills in Students with ASD . This study examined the extent to which a computer-based social skills intervention called FaceSay was associated with improvements in affect recognition , mentalizing , and social skills of school-aged children with Autism Spectrum Disorder ( ASD ) . FaceSay offers students simulated practice with eye gaze , joint attention , and facial recognition skills . This randomized control trial included school-aged children meeting educational criteria for autism ( N = 31 ) . Results demonstrated that participants who received the intervention improved their affect recognition and mentalizing skills , as well as their social skills . These findings suggest that , by targeting face-processing skills , computer-based interventions may produce changes in broader cognitive and social-skills domains in a cost- and time-efficient manner .
