In this study, ASD and TD adults (N = 22) largely did not differ on the self-perception of their personality traits or on how they expected to be perceived by unfamiliar observers. However adults with ASD were rated less favorably by TD observers (N = 412) on 19 out of 20 personality items, and adults with ASD were less accurate at predicting how they would be perceived. These findings suggest impaired meta-perception in ASD that may serve as a potential mechanism through which reduced social cognitive ability contributes to social impairment.

Brief Report: Reduced Prioritization of Facial Threat in Adults with Autism / Noah J. SASSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-4 (April 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 46-4 (April 2016) . - p.1471-1476 Titre : Brief Report: Reduced Prioritization of Facial Threat in Adults with Autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Noah J. SASSON, Auteur ; Jonathon R. SHASTEEN, Auteur ; Amy E. PINKHAM, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1471-1476 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Threat detection  Face in the crowd  Threat superiority  Anger superiority  Emotion Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Typically-developing (TD) adults detect angry faces more efficiently within a crowd than non-threatening faces. Prior studies of this social threat superiority effect (TSE) in ASD using tasks consisting of schematic faces and homogeneous crowds have produced mixed results. Here, we employ a more ecologically-valid test of the social TSE and find evidence of a reduced social TSE in adults with ASD (n = 21) relative to TD controls (n = 28). Unlike TD participants, the ASD group failed to show the normative advantage for detecting angry faces faster than happy faces, either within crowds of neutral or emotional faces. These findings parallel prior work indicating a reduced sensitivity in ASD to facial cues of untrustworthiness, and may reflect a vulnerability for evaluating social harm.

Cognitive and Social Cognitive Self-assessment in Autistic Adults / Kilee M. DEBRABANDER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-7 (July 2021)

We compared self-assessment between 37 autistic adults without intellectual disability to 39 non-autistic (NA) controls on a series of three general cognitive and three social cognitive tasks. Whereas autistic adults and NA adults did not differ in their self-assessment accuracy on general cognitive tasks, they did on social cognitive tasks, with autistic adults demonstrating lower accuracy. The direction of their inaccuracy was variable (i.e., both over and underestimation), and self-assessment was largely unrelated to their level of social functioning. Over versus underestimation may have different functional implications, and warrants future investigation.

Distinct profiles of social skill in adults with autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia / Kerrianne E. MORRISON in Autism Research, 10-5 (May 2017)

SASSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.878-887 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : social skills  social interaction  social cognition  social behavior Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Overlapping social impairments in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Schizophrenia (SCZ) contributed to decades of diagnostic confusion that continues to this day in some clinical settings. The current study provides the first direct and detailed comparison of social behavior in the two disorders by identifying profiles of social skill in adults with ASD (n = 54), SCZ (n = 54), and typically developing (TD) controls (n = 56) during a real-world social interaction. ASD and SCZ groups exhibited poorer social skill, both overall and on most discrete abilities, relative to the TD group. Direct comparison of ASD to SCZ revealed distinct behavioral profiles, with ASD uniquely characterized by fewer interactive behaviors, and SCZ characterized by greater impaired gaze and flat/inappropriate affective responses. Additionally, IQ was associated with both overall social skill and many discrete social skills in SCZ, but was largely unrelated to social skill in ASD. These results indicate that overlapping social deficits in ASD and SCZ are comprised of both shared and distinct social skill impairments. The largest distinctions—reduced social reciprocity but better expressivity in ASD relative to SCZ, and a greater role of IQ in social skill for SCZ than ASD—highlight disorder-specific features that can improve etiological understanding, diagnostic differentiation, and treatment strategies.

Evaluating Posed and Evoked Facial Expressions of Emotion from Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Daniel J. FASO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-1 (January 2015)

Here, naïve female observers (n = 38) judged the intensity, naturalness and emotional category of expressions produced by adults with ASD (n = 6) and typically developing (TD) adults (n = 6) in both a posed condition and an evoked condition in which emotions were naturalistically elicited and validated. ASD expressions were rated as more intense and less natural than TD expressions but contrary to prediction were identified with greater accuracy, an effect driven primarily by angry expressions. Naturalness ratings of evoked expressions were positively associated with identification accuracy for TD but not ASD individuals. Collectively, these findings highlight differences, but not a reduction, in facial expressivity in ASD that do not hinder emotion recognition accuracy but may affect social interaction quality.
