Social Skills: Developing Empathy and Conversations
Theory of mind, the ability to understand the perspectives, beliefs, desires, and intentions of others, is always a challenging aptitude for individuals with Asperger’s. This five-page printable handout provides direct practice at paying attention to others’ feelings and identifying the catalysts causing those feelings. It includes a comprehensive written discussion on the philosophy behind looking out for others’ feelings, a form to use for practice during conversations, a homework form to encourage observation of behaviors that impact others, and notes on how to best use the materials along with ideas for modifying activities.
