Description
Many people who have difficulties with social cognition, including those on the autism spectrum, are not able to see the big picture of a situation. That is, they tend to focus, or even hyper-focus, on the details within the larger whole of a concept, conversation, story, picture or situation, and have difficulty recognizing the main idea, topic or general point. “Big Picture Thinking” was written to help students with cognitive deficits see how individual pieces of social information fit into a larger context, so that they may begin to become big picture thinkers and, therefore be more successful.
