Affective empathy, cognitive empathy and social attention in children at high risk of criminal behaviour / Lisette VAN ZONNEVELD in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 58-8 (August 2017) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 58-8 (August 2017) . - p.913-921 Titre : Affective empathy, cognitive empathy and social attention in children at high risk of criminal behaviour Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lisette VAN ZONNEVELD, Auteur ; Evelien PLATJE, Auteur ; Leo DE SONNEVILLE, Auteur ; Stephanie VAN GOOZEN, Auteur ; Hanna SWAAB, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.913-921 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Criminality  antisocial behaviour  empathy  eye gaze  psychophysiology Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Empathy deficits are hypothesized to underlie impairments in social interaction exhibited by those who engage in antisocial behaviour. Social attention is an essential precursor to empathy; however, no studies have yet examined social attention in relation to cognitive and affective empathy in those exhibiting antisocial behaviour. Methods Participants were 8- to 12-year-old children at high risk of developing criminal behaviour (N = 114, 80.7% boys) and typically developing controls (N = 43, 72.1% boys). The high-risk children were recruited through an ongoing early identification and intervention project of the city of Amsterdam, focusing on the underage siblings or children of delinquents and those failing primary school. Video clips with neutral and emotional content (fear, happiness and pain) were shown, while heart rate (HR), skin conductance level (SCL) and skin conductance responses (SCRs) were recorded to measure affective empathy. Answers to questions about emotions in the clips were coded to measure cognitive empathy. Eye-tracking was used to evaluate visual scanning patterns towards social relevant cues (eyes and face) in the clips. Results The high-risk group did not differ from the control group in social attention and cognitive empathy, but showed reduced HR to pain and fear, and reduced SCL and SCRs to pain. Conclusions Children at high risk of developing criminal behaviour show impaired affective empathy but unimpaired social attention and cognitive empathy. The implications for early identification and intervention studies with antisocial children are discussed.

Autism Symptoms, Executive Functioning and Academic Progress in Higher Education Students / Renee DIJKHUIS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-4 (April 2020) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-4 (April 2020) . - p.1353-1363 Titre : Autism Symptoms, Executive Functioning and Academic Progress in Higher Education Students Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Renee DIJKHUIS, Auteur ; Leo DE SONNEVILLE, Auteur ; Tim ZIERMANS, Auteur ; Wouter STAAL, Auteur ; Hanna SWAAB, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1353-1363 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Executive functioning  Higher education  Young adults Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many students with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) attending higher education drop out prematurely. The predictive value of self-reported daily executive functioning (EF) and (cognitive) performance-based EF (mental flexibility and working memory) for academic progress was evaluated in 54 young adults with ASD (Mage = 22.5, SD = 2.4, 72% male). Regression analyses showed that autism symptom severity explained 12% of variance in academic progress, which was raised to 36% by adding self-reported daily EF, and to 25% by adding performance-based EF. It is suggested that EF is a candidate marker for academic progress in higher education students with ASD and a candidate target for early intervention.

Cross-Sectional Evidence for a Decrease in Cognitive Function With Age in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders? / Petra Suzanne BARNEVELD in Autism Research, 7-5 (October 2014) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Autism Research > 7-5 (October 2014) . - p.527-534 Titre : Cross-Sectional Evidence for a Decrease in Cognitive Function With Age in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Petra Suzanne BARNEVELD, Auteur ; Hanna SWAAB, Auteur ; Herman VAN ENGELAND, Auteur ; Leo DE SONNEVILLE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.527-534 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : cognitive functioning  intelligence profiles  development  age  autism spectrum disorders Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are associated with early disturbances in brain maturation processes and these interferences presumably have their consequences for the progressive emergence of cognitive deficits later in life, as expressed in intelligence profiles. In this study, we addressed the impact of age on cognitive functioning of 6- to 15-year-old children and adolescents with ASD. Intelligence profiles were measured by the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children and compared among four consecutive age cohorts (children aged 6.17–8.03 years, 8.04–9.61 years, and 9.68–11.50 years and adolescents aged 11.54–15.85 years) of 237 high-functioning boys with ASD. The results clearly demonstrated that the global intelligence level was lower in children aged 8 years and older, when compared with 6- and 7-year-old children with ASD. This is mostly due to the Freedom From Distractibility factor, suggesting that older children were less able to sustain their attention, they were more distractible, or had more graph motor difficulties. Moreover, an effect of age was also found with respect to the relatively poor performance on the subtest Comprehension when compared with other verbal comprehension subtests, indicating that specifically the impairments in verbal comprehension and social reasoning abilities were more profound in older children when compared with 6- and 7-year-old children with ASD. Findings of this cross-sectional study showed that it is relevant to take age into account when evaluating the impact of cognitive impairments on intelligence in children with ASD, because the impact of these developmental disorders might be different at different ages.

Emotion recognition and alexithymia in high functioning females with autism spectrum disorder / Mieke P. KETELAARS in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 21 (January 2016) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 21 (January 2016) . - p.51-60 Titre : Emotion recognition and alexithymia in high functioning females with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mieke P.

This study investigates the relation between alexithymia and emotion recognition in this group. 31 high-functioning females with ASD and 28 age matched typical females performed a vocal and visual emotion recognition task and completed an alexithymia questionnaire. Level of intensity of the presented emotions was manipulated in the visual emotion recognition task between 25% (low intensity) and 100% (full emotion intensity) in 25% increments. There was no evidence of impairments in the accuracy of visual or vocal emotion recognition. Both groups were equally affected by level of intensity. Level of alexithymia was higher in women with ASD in the cognitive domain. Within the ASD group, women with high levels of alexithymia attained lower scores on visual emotion recognition in the lowest intensity condition, suggesting that being able to identify one's own emotions may help in processing subtle emotions.

Executive Function in MCDD and PDD-NOS: A Study of Inhibitory Control, Attention Regulation and Behavioral Adaptivity / Sophie RIJN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-6 (June 2013)

In an attempt to identify this subgroup, children with PDD-NOS, subtype MCDD (n = 24) were compared to children with PDD-NOS (n = 23) on executive function (EF) skills. Significant differences emerged, always to the disadvantage of the children with PDD-NOS, subtype MCDD on various EF measures. The findings suggest compromised attention regulation and impaired inhibitory control in children with MCDD, which may help explain high levels of thought problems which are frequently observed in these children. Our findings provide evidence for recognizing a PDD subcategory of MCDD that is of specific interest with regard to long-term developmental risks involved.
