However, when they enter school, they also enter a larger society, have more friends, and find that the society have rules, procedures, and etiquettes that they have to follow. For example, they need to be able to wait to play with friends. Therefore, children with autism need trainings and supports on social competence. This paper aims at describing social competence deficits in children with autism, and trends in promoting social competence for upper primary school children with autism. This is in order to provide information for improving social competence in the children. With improved social competence, children with autism are likely to live more happily in the society and have better qualities of lives.
