Despite an understanding of some of the difficulties experienced by individuals with autism, and the adjustments suitable for supporting them, legal professionals reported constraints arising from a lack of understanding by others within the criminal justice system. These results are considered alongside the views and perspectives of autistic adults (n?=?9) and parents of children on the autism spectrum (n?=?19), who had encountered the criminal courts as witnesses or defendants and were largely dissatisfied with their experiences. Training, understanding and the provision of appropriate adjustments were identified as key issues by all respondent groups.

Brief Report: Schema Consistent Misinformation Effects in Eyewitnesses with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Katie L. MARAS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 41-6 (June 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 41-6 (June 2011) Titre : Brief Report: Schema Consistent Misinformation Effects in Eyewitnesses with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Katie L. MARAS, Auteur ; Dermot M. BOWLER, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Schema  Typicality  Misinformation  Eyewitness  Memory Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A number of studies have demonstrated schema-related misinformation effects in typical individuals, but no research to date has examined this with witnesses with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), despite their impaired ability to generate core elements that define everyday events. After witnessing slides depicting a bank robbery, 16 adults with ASD and 16 matched comparison individuals were exposed to post-event misinformation that was either schema typical or atypical. Consistent with previous work, the comparison group went onto report more schema typical misinformation than atypical misinformation. However, so too did the ASD group, suggesting that individuals with ASD do have understanding of the causal links between events, persons and actions, an important finding from both theoretical and applied perspectives.

Brief report: Suggestibility, compliance and psychological traits in high-functioning adults with autism spectrum disorder / Katie L. MARAS in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-3 (July-September 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 6-3 (July-September 2012) . - p.1168-1175 Titre : Brief report: Suggestibility, compliance and psychological traits in high-functioning adults with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Katie L. MARAS, Auteur ; Dermot M. BOWLER, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.1168-1175 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Suggestibility  Leading questions  Recall  Eyewitness  Memory  Individual differences Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may be over-represented within the criminal justice system; it is therefore important to understand how they fare under police questioning. The present study examined interrogative suggestibility and compliance in individuals with ASD, and whether this is associated with certain psychological traits. Adults with ASD and their typical counterparts completed the Gudjonsson Suggestibility Scales (GSS), Gudjonsson Compliance Scale (GCS), and measures of state-trait anxiety, self-esteem, fear of negative evaluation by others and paranoia. In contrast to previous research (North, Russell, & Gudjonsson, 2008), there was no difference between the ASD and comparison groups on the measure of compliance, and groups also did not differ on any of the GSS measures, despite the ASD group reporting significantly higher paranoia. Findings indicate that individuals with ASD may be no more likely to succumb to interrogative pressures than their typical counterparts.

Experiences of Autism Spectrum Disorder and Policing in England and Wales: Surveying Police and the Autism Community / Laura CRANE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-6 (June 2016)

Just 42 % of officers were satisfied with how they had worked with individuals with ASD and reasons for this varied. Although officers acknowledged the need for adjustments, organisational/time constraints were cited as barriers. Whilst 37 % of officers had received training on ASD, a need for training tailored to policing roles (e.g., frontline officers, detectives) was identified. Police responses are discussed with respect to the experiences of the ASD community (31 adults with ASD, 49 parents), who were largely dissatisfied with their experience of the police and echoed the need for police training on ASD.

Eyewitness Testimony in Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Review / Katie L. MARAS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-11 (November 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 44-11 (November 2014) . - p.2682-2697 Titre : Eyewitness Testimony in Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Review Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Katie L.

BOWLER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2682-2697 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Eyewitness  Memory  Suggestibility  Interviewing  Credibility Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is estimated to affect around 1% of the population, and is characterised by impairments in social interaction, communication, and behavioural flexibility. A number of risk factors indicate that individuals with ASD may become victims or witnesses of crimes. In addition to their social and communication deficits, people with ASD also have very specific memory problems, which impacts on their abilities to recall eyewitnessed events. We begin this review with an overview of the memory difficulties that are experienced by individuals with ASD, before discussing the studies that have specifically examined eyewitness testimony in this group and the implications for investigative practice. Finally, we outline related areas that would be particularly fruitful for future research to explore.
