Social Stories and Autism Ranking: Insufficient/Mixed evidence

Audience

Social stories were first developed for use with primary school autistic children but have since been adapted for use with a wide range of people, including autistic adolescents and adults and people with other conditions, such as language impairment, learning disability etc.

According to Gray (1993), “Social stories are most likely to benefit students functioning intellectually in the trainable mentally impaired range or higher who possess basic language skills. Social stories have been used successfully with both elementary [primary] and secondary students”.
