| Résumé : |
Attentional dysfunction is one of the most consistent findings in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, the significance of such findings for the pathophysiology of autism is unclear. To elucidate the relationship of ASD and attention, deficits in each of several functions of attention are examined by conceptualizing attention as an organ system. The functions of attention are alerting, orienting, and executive control, each with their own neuroanatomy and neurochemistry. The findings related to attentional difficulties in autism may best be explained as deficits among attentional functions and their interactions. Such deficits are important to the development and maintenance of cognitive and social dysfunction in ASD, and may constitute a key biomarker for these disorders. |
