The present study examined utilitarian and deontological judgments in impersonal and personal moral dilemmas, comparing 66 individuals with ASD and 61 typically developing (TD) individuals between 6 and 18 years. Utilitarian judgments decreased with age. This decline was much more gradual for personal dilemmas in the ASD than in the TD group. ASD individuals rated utilitarian judgments as more appropriate but felt less calm, consistent with the Empathy Imbalance hypothesis. Utilitarian judgments were associated with social interaction difficulties in ASD. These findings identify possible social therapeutic targets for more efficient coping strategies in individuals with ASD.

Emotional Face Processing in Autism Spectrum Condition: A Study of Attentional Orienting and Inhibitory Control / Rosa SAHUQUILLO-LEAL ; Manuel PEREA ; Alba Moreno-Giménez ; Ladislao Salmerón ; Julia Andreu ; Diana Pons ; Máximo Vento ; Ana GARCÍA-BLANCO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 55-2 (February 2025)

This can be explained by an atypical attentional processing of social information: individuals with ASC may show problems with orienting attention to socially relevant stimuli and/or inhibiting their attentional responses to irrelevant ones. To shed light on this issue, we examined attentional orienting and inhibitory control to emotional stimuli (angry, happy, and neutral faces). An antisaccade task (with both prosaccade and antisacade blocks) was applied to a final sample of 29 children with ASC and 27 children with typical development (TD). Whereas children with ASC committed more antisaccade errors when seeing angry faces than happy or neutral ones, TD children committed more antisaccade errors when encountering happy faces than neutral faces. Furthermore, latencies in the prosaccade and antisaccade blocks were longer in children with ASC and they were associated with the severity of ASC symptoms. Thus, children with ASC showed an impaired inhibitory control when angry faces were presented. This bias to negative high-arousal information is congruent with affective information-processing theories on ASC, suggesting that threatening stimuli induce an overwhelming response in ASC. Therapeutic strategies where train the shift attention to emotional stimuli (i.e. faces) may improve ASC symptomatology and their socials functioning.

Modulation of attention by socio-emotional scenes in children with autism spectrum disorder / Ana C. GARCÍA-BLANCO in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 33 (January 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 33 (January 2017) . - p.39-46 Titre : Modulation of attention by socio-emotional scenes in children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ana C. GARCÍA-BLANCO, Auteur ; Nuria YÁÑEZ, Auteur ; Miguel A. VÁZQUEZ, Auteur ; Inmaculada MARCOS, Auteur ; Manuel PEREA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.39-46 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Childhood  Attentional biases  Social scenes  Dot-probe task Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abnormal attentional processes to socially relevant information may underlie social impairment in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). To examine how these processes are modulated by the emotional salience of the stimuli, we studied the attentional biases to social scenes (happy, sad, and threatening) in ASD children. An emotional dot-probe task was applied to children (from 6 to 12 years old) with Autism Spectrum Disorder without additional language and/or intellectual impairments (ASD; n = 25) and age/sex-matched controls (n = 25). Results ASD children showed an attentional bias toward threatening scenes while typically developing children tended to direct their attention toward sad scenes. There were no differences between groups for happy scenes. Threatening situations captured greater attention in ASD individuals than in the control participants. Thus, abnormal attention to emotionally relevant situations may negatively affect the ability of ASD children to adapt cognitively and emotionally, particularly in threatening situations.
