Brief summary
The purpose of the JEMImE project is to create a serious game to help children with Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) develop facial and vocal emotions in context. The objective of this study is to record facial and vocal emotional productions in children with autism and PDD in order to create an algorithm for the recognition of facial emotional expressions implemented in the serious game JEMImE.
Interventions
Children are asked to perform three tasks: 1. an emotional production on imitation (the child with autism or TED will imitate the emotion expressed by an animated avatar) 2. an emotional production by mime of the emotion on command (oral and written) without visualizing the model of imitation 3. Emotional production in context: the child with autism or EFD will describe images forming the story of Frog and as it is read, will produce the appropriate facial and vocal emotions in the context.
