Strange Words: Autistic Traits and the Processing of Non-Literal Language / Peter E. MCKENNA in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-11 (November 2015)
[article]
Titre : Strange Words: Autistic Traits and the Processing of Non-Literal Language Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Peter E. MCKENNA, Auteur ; Alexandra GLASS, Auteur ; Gnanathusharan RAJENDRAN, Auteur ; Martin CORLEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3606-3612 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic traits Autistic Quotient Figurative language Language processing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Previous investigations into metonymy comprehension in ASD have confounded metonymy with anaphora, and outcome with process. Here we show how these confounds may be avoided, using data from non-diagnosed participants classified using Autism Quotient. Participants read sentences containing target words with novel or established metonymic senses (e.g., Finland, Vietnam) in literal- or figurative-supporting contexts. Participants took longer to read target words in figurative contexts, especially where the metonymic sense was novel. Importantly, participants with higher AQs took longer still to read novel metonyms. This suggests a focus for further exploration, in terms of potential differences between individuals diagnosed with ASD and their neurotypical counterparts, and more generally in terms of the processes by which comprehension is achieved.
