Abstract

The model found in this text was designed to assist those having Asperger's Syndrome with interpersonal communication in an easily replicated manner, using important details found within communicative interaction. Through using Burke's Dramatistic concepts, especially his pentadic ratios and concepts found in Judee Burgoon's Interaction Adaptation Theory, it is possible to assist those with Asperger's Syndrome in becoming more communicatively competent.
