  • Not Synced
    >[NARRATOR] Okay, so the next video that
    we are looking at is by Baron-Cohen et al.
  • Not Synced
    When it says "et al.", it means that there
    has been three or more researchers,
  • Not Synced
    so if there's one researcher,
    it'll say the researcher's name;
  • Not Synced
    if there's two, it will say
    the two researchers' names
  • Not Synced
    (for example, Loftus & Palmer);
  • Not Synced
    but if there has been three or more,
  • Not Synced
    we usually put "et al.",
    so Baron-Cohen et al.
  • Not Synced
    So it was done in 1997
  • Not Synced
    and it is looking at autism and
    something called Theory of Mind.

    through some key terms,
  • Not Synced
    through a bit of background,
  • Not Synced
    so make sure you make notes
    on the background information,
  • Not Synced
    and then we'll look at the study.
  • Not Synced
    Autism is a developmental disorder
    and it affects the social functioning of individuals.
  • Not Synced
    So it looks at how individuals can
    have impairments in several areas
  • Not Synced
    related to their ability
    to function socially,

    communicate socially,
    and things like that.
