Dr. Laura Schreibman & others like Dr. Brian Iwata are looking into development of speech that is typical vs. development of speech (sounds) of children with autism.

This kind of biological knowledge & common development of sounds is highly critical for the conditioning of speech of those with autism such that likely success for higher reinforcement schedules are given for a behavior that is not being learned.
