BUSTOS, Valeska Torres  y  VIDELA, Ángel Roco. Spanish prosody in people with autism spectrum disorder. A scope review. Medisur [online]. 2023, vol.21, n.6, pp. 1290-1297.  Epub 30-Dic-2023. ISSN 1727-897X.

Prosody, which includes intonation, rhythm, pauses, and stress, is important in communication. In autism spectrum disorder, prosody is affected in its expression and comprehension, which makes it difficult to understand language and adds a barrier to social communication. The objective of the study is to carry out a scoping review based on the publications available between 2012 and 2022 on Spanish prosody in people with autism spectrum disorder. All indexed articles on the subject were considered, from the clinical linguistics area perspective. The Scopus, Clarivate Analytics, Wos Of Science and some other databases were consulted. The PRISMA methodology criteria were applied to select the articles. 8 texts were obtained, of which only 3 met the inclusion criteria. The research studied the accent in people with autism spectrum disorder; another pauses; while a study dealt with the validation of a test to assess pragmatic prosody. Research on prosody in people with autism spectrum disorder in different variants of Spanish is scarce, which prevents adequate characterization of prosodic features in this population.
