Abstract
In order to improve the efficiency of toy intervention for the treatment of language disorder in autistic children, design elements related to toys are studied. Interviews were conducted with teachers and parents of children with autism, as well as professional rehabilitation teachers, and field observations were made at autism centers. Then related design elements stratified were selected from these researches. Hierarchical analysis (AHP) is used to quickly locate the main design factors from the inextricable influences in this study. The highly logical and scientific Hierarchical Analysis method, proposed by American scholar Saaty, can be applied to the scientific and efficient selecting of the related design factors in this topic. Through conducting single-case experiments on autistic children and comprehensive and quantitative evaluation on the results based on the theoretical framework of ICF-CY theory framework and MCELF language assessment forms to study the most effective Elements of toy design for treatment. In this paper, literature research, questionnaire research, interviews, and experimental analysis were used to identify the key design elements of special therapeutic toys for children with autism. The research can develop the further development and research of toy design for auxiliary therapy of autistic children with speech disorders, to fill the gap in the market, and to raise the attention to the needs of children with autism. The results of this study will provide a scientific basis for the selection of relevant toy design solutions, which is of theoretical significance and practical value.
