CONVERSE - Screenshot 2

Play your conversation deck against your date's conversation deck and gain swag! The Psychiatry Department Autism Research Program has had the privilege of working with the EAE of the University of Utah. Over the course of a few months, the development team has developed a game aimed toward practicing appropriate reciprocal conversational skills, appropriately dubbed "Converse." The essential premise of the game is to match the key points of conversation in attempt to learn how a conversation can be carried across multiple topics or genres. This game will be particularly exciting for social skills groups for individuals with autism spectrum disorders. A common education aim of these programs is to teach reciprocal conversation skills in a variety of settings including employment interviews, making new friendships, dating, and other social gatherings.
