Vocal emotion perception in pseudo-sentences by secondary-school children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Richard BRENNAND in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 5-4 (October-December 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 5-4 (October-December 2011) . - p.1567-1573 Titre : Vocal emotion perception in pseudo-sentences by secondary-school children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Richard BRENNAND, Auteur ; Astrid SCHEPMAN, Auteur ; Paul RODWAY, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.1567-1573 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Vocal emotion  Prosody  Autism Spectrum Disorder  Asperger syndrome  Pseudo-sentences  Amygdala theory Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There have been inconsistent findings regarding emotion identification abilities in people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Some researchers have found global or emotion-specific impairments, while others have not. The present work reports findings from an experiment testing the ability of children with ASD (primarily Asperger syndrome) to identify basic vocal emotions. Participants identified the emotion present in pseudo-sentences spoken with affective prosody (anger, fear, happiness, sadness). Participants with ASD, at secondary school, showed a modest, non-significant performance deficit compared to typically developing controls. This minor deficit was dependent on a difference in verbal ability. There was no evidence that children with ASD had emotion-specific or valence-specific deficits. By-items correlations showed that stimuli whose emotions were difficult to identify for children with ASD were also difficult to identify for controls, while confusion matrices showed similar error patterns across groups. The results are discussed in relation to the amygdala theory of autism.
