Making sense of the perceptual capacities in autistic and non-autistic adults / Jana BRINKERT in Autism, 24-7 (October 2020)
[article]
Titre : Making sense of the perceptual capacities in autistic and non-autistic adults Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jana BRINKERT, Auteur ; Anna REMINGTON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1795-1804 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : *adults *attention *autism *perception *perceptual capacity *sensory processing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Perceptual capacity refers to the amount of information that we can pay attention to at any one time. Research has shown that autistic people have a higher perceptual capacity, which means they can take in more information than non-autistic people can. This can be useful in certain situations, for instance, hearing approaching cars or noticing small details. However, in other situations, a higher perceptual capacity may result in more distraction. This study looked at whether having this increased perceptual capacity is linked to being very sensitive to sensory information (lights, sounds, touch, taste and smell) - something that many autistic people experience on a daily basis. Being very sensitive to these things can make it hard to interact with the world around us, so it is important to know more about what causes the sensitivity. To explore this, 38 autistic and 66 non-autistic adults completed a computer task that measured perceptual capacity and filled in a questionnaire about how sensitive they were to sensory information. We found that perceptual capacity was related to sensory symptoms for both autistic and non-autistic participants; people who had a larger perceptual capacity showed more sensitivity, while people who had a lower perceptual capacity showed reduced sensory sensitivity. This information can hopefully be used to improve the way in which we can support people who experience unpleasant sensory sensitivity.
