Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 8-10 (October 2014) . - p.1316-1332 Titre : Working memory and autism: A review of literature Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Suneeta KERCOOD, Auteur ; Janice A. GRSKOVIC, Auteur ; Devender R. BANDA, Auteur ; Jasmine BEGESKE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1316-1332 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Working memory  Auditory working memory  Visiospatial working memory Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Research studies that evaluated working memory with students with autism and other disorders were reviewed and summarized. Results suggest that persons with autism score lower on measures of working memory than do typical controls especially on tasks that require cognitive flexibility, planning, greater working memory load, and spatial working memory, and with increasing task complexity and in dual task conditions. Lower scores in verbal working memory were associated with greater problems in adaptive behavior and more restrictive and repetitive behavior. Children with autism were as likely as typical children to employ articulatory rehearsal (verbal WM). The format of WM tasks may determine whether or not performance is impaired. Implications for educational practice and future research are discussed.
