Going ‘Above and Beyond’: Are Those High in Autistic Traits Less Pro-social? / Leila JAMEEL in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-8 (August 2014)

This study investigated pro-social behaviour in students scoring high and low on the autism-spectrum quotient (AQ), using a novel scenario task: ‘Above and Beyond’. Each scenario involved an opportunity to behave pro-socially, and thus required balancing the needs of a character against participants’ own interests. High AQ participants both generated responses and selected courses of action that were less pro-social than those of the low AQ group. For actions of low pro-social value they gave higher self-satisfaction ratings; conversely, they gave lower self-satisfaction ratings for high pro-social actions. The implications for everyday functioning are considered for those with high autistic traits.

Great Expectations: The Role of Rules in Guiding Pro-social Behaviour in Groups with High Versus Low Autistic Traits / Leila JAMEEL in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-8 (August 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 45-8 (August 2015) . - p.2311-2322 Titre : Great Expectations: The Role of Rules in Guiding Pro-social Behaviour in Groups with High Versus Low Autistic Traits Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Leila JAMEEL, Auteur ; Karishma VYAS, Auteur ; Giulia BELLESI, Auteur ; Diana CASSELL, Auteur ; Shelley CHANNON, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.2311-2322 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic traits  Pro-social behaviour  Empathy  Mentalising  Social rules  Social knowledge Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Measuring autistic traits in the general population has proven sensitive for examining cognition. The present study extended this to pro-social behaviour, investigating the influence of expectations to help others. A novel task describing characters in need of help was administered to students scoring high versus low on the Autism-Spectrum Quotient. Scenarios had two variants, describing either a ‘clear-cut’ or ‘ambiguous’ social rule. Participants with high versus low autistic traits were less pro-social and sympathetic overall towards the characters. The groups’ ratings of characters’ expectations were comparable, but those with high autistic traits provided more rule-based rationales in the clear-cut condition. This pattern of relatively intact knowledge in the context of reduced pro-social behaviour has implications for social skill training programmes.

Judgments of Cause and Blame: Sensitivity to Intentionality in Asperger’s Syndrome / Shelley CHANNON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 41-11 (November 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 41-11 (November 2011) . - p.1534-1542 Titre : Judgments of Cause and Blame: Sensitivity to Intentionality in Asperger’s Syndrome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Shelley CHANNON, Auteur ; David LAGNADO, Auteur ; Sian FITZPATRICK, Auteur ; Helena DRURY, Auteur ; Isabelle TAYLOR, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.1534-1542 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Moral judgment  Mentalising  Theory of mind  Causal inference  Asperger’s syndrome Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Sensitivity to intentionality in people with Asperger’s syndrome (AS) and matched controls was investigated using two scenario-based tasks. The first compared intentional and unintentional human actions and physical events leading to the same negative outcomes. The second compared intentional actions that varied in their subjective and objective likelihood of bringing about a negative outcome. Whilst adults with AS did not differ from controls in their judgments of causality, or in their blame judgments in relation to non-mentalistic factors, they showed heightened sensitivity to mentalistic considerations in their attributions of blame. They made greater differentiation than controls between intentional and unintentional actions, and also between actions that the protagonists believed to be likely versus unlikely to lead to negative consequences.

Moral reasoning about everyday situations in adults with autism spectrum disorder / Giulia BELLESI in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 52 (August 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 52 (August 2018) . - p.1-11 Titre : Moral reasoning about everyday situations in adults with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Giulia BELLESI, Auteur ; Karishma VYAS, Auteur ; Leila JAMEEL, Auteur ; Shelley CHANNON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1-11 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Social cognition  Social behaviour  Empathy  Moral reasoning  Everyday functioning Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Little work has explored moral reasoning in adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The present research used two novel scenario-based tasks to investigate how adults with and without ASD reason about moral rules and apply them in everyday interactions. The Rule Transgressions task examined decision-making in situations where breaking a rule might lead to a personal advantage. People with ASD did not differ from control participants in how frequently they chose to carry out the transgressions or their ratings of acceptability. However, they gave fewer sophisticated rationales to explain why the transgressions were wrong. The Social Intentionality task examined how participants judged and reacted to intentional and accidental transgressions performed by a story character. Both groups judged and responded more harshly to intentional transgressions than unintentional ones, but participants with ASD gave harsher responses overall. The findings suggest some preservation of the understanding of moral rules in ASD, but difficulties in applying and reasoning about these.

Punishment and Sympathy Judgments: Is the Quality of Mercy Strained in Asperger’s Syndrome? / Shelley CHANNON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 40-10 (October 2010)

The two groups made similar judgments with respect to degree of driver negligence for both fines imposed and sympathy ratings. They also made similar judgments of fines in relation to the type of justification given for the drivers’ actions. However, the AS group differentiated more in sympathy judgments relating to good and poor justifications. The AS group thus appeared to show preserved judgment with respect to compensation and sympathy for the victim and fines for the driver, but expressed less sympathy towards drivers with poor justifications for their actions.
