About
Minkyeong Jeong’s research lies at the intersection of assistive technology, language development, and autism intervention, with a focus on leveraging smart media to support children with High-Functioning Autism (HFA). Her most cited work, "Lexical Representation of Emotions for High Functioning Autism via Emotional Story Intervention using Smart Media" (2015, 7 citations), pioneers the use of tablet PCs and robots to train emotional vocabulary in children on the autism spectrum. By integrating interactive storytelling with digital tools, Jeong addresses a critical gap: helping HFA children grasp and express nuanced emotional language—a skill often impaired in this population. Her contributions demonstrate how technology-enhanced therapy can bridge social communication deficits, offering scalable, engaging interventions. While her citation count reflects a growing field, Jeong’s work is notable for its practical, human-centered design, merging clinical speech-language pathology with emerging tech. She stands out for translating complex emotional concepts into accessible, media-driven learning experiences, making her a thoughtful voice in special education technology and child-computer interaction.
