Dissociation Between Key Processes of Social Cognition in Autism: Impaired Mentalizing But Intact Sense of Agency / Nicole DAVID in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 38-4 (April 2008)

Both imitation and mentalizing are at the core of the sense of agency, the awareness that we are the initiators of our own behavior. Little evidence exists regarding the sense of agency in autism. Thus, we compared high-functioning adults with autism to healthy control subjects using an action monitoring and attribution task. Subjects with autism did not show deficits in this task, yet they showed significant mentalizing deficits. Our findings indicate a dissociation between the sense of agency and ascription of mental states in autism. We propose that social-cognitive deficits in autism may arise on a higher level than that of action monitoring and awareness.

Responses to Nonverbal Behaviour of Dynamic Virtual Characters in High-Functioning Autism / Caroline SCHWARTZ in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 40-1 (January 2010)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 40-1 (January 2010) . - p.100-111 Titre : Responses to Nonverbal Behaviour of Dynamic Virtual Characters in High-Functioning Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Caroline SCHWARTZ, Auteur ; Astrid GAWRONSKI, Auteur ; Kai VOGELEY, Auteur ; Gary BENTE, Auteur ; Leonhard SCHILBACH, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.100-111 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Mentalizing High-functioning-autism-(HFA) Nonverbal-behaviour Virtual-characters Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We investigated feelings of involvement evoked by nonverbal behaviour of dynamic virtual characters in 20 adults with high-functioning autism (HFA) and high IQ as well as 20 IQ-matched control subjects. The effects of diagnostic group showed that subjects with autism experienced less “contact” and “urge” to establish contact across conditions and less “interest” than controls in a condition with meaningful facial expressions. Moreover, the analyses within groups revealed that nonverbal behaviour had less influence on feelings in HFA subjects. In conclusion, disturbances of HFA subjects in experiencing involvement in social encounters with virtual characters displaying nonverbal behaviour do not extend to all kinds of feelings, suggesting different pathways in the ascription of involvement in social situations.

Sex-Related Cognitive Profile in Autism Spectrum Disorders Diagnosed Late in Life: Implications for the Female Autistic Phenotype / Fritz-Georg LEHNHARDT in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-1 (January 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 46-1 (January 2016) . - p.139-154 Titre : Sex-Related Cognitive Profile in Autism Spectrum Disorders Diagnosed Late in Life: Implications for the Female Autistic Phenotype Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Fritz-Georg LEHNHARDT, Auteur ; Christine Michaela FALTER, Auteur ; Astrid GAWRONSKI, Auteur ; Kathleen PFEIFFER, Auteur ; Ralf TEPEST, Auteur ; Jeremy FRANKLIN, Auteur ; Kai VOGELEY, Auteur Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p.139-154 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autisme féminin  Autism spectrum disorder  Adulthood  Cognitive profile  Female autistic phenotype  Processing speed Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Females with high-functioning ASD are known to camouflage their autistic symptoms better than their male counterparts, making them prone to being under-ascertained and delayed in diagnostic assessment. Thus far the underlying cognitive processes that enable such successful socio-communicative adaptation are not well understood. The current results show sex-related differences in the cognitive profile of ASD individuals, which were diagnosed late in life exclusively. Higher verbal abilities were found in males (n = 69) as opposed to higher processing speed and better executive functions in females with ASD (n = 38). Since both sexes remained unidentified during childhood and adolescence, these results are suggestive for sex-distinctive cognitive strategies as an alternative to typically-developed reciprocal social behavior and social mimicry in high functioning ASD.
