ADHD and delay aversion: the influence of non-temporal stimulation on choice for delayed rewards / Inge ANTROP in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-11 (November 2006)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 47-11 (November 2006) . - p.1152–1158 Titre : ADHD and delay aversion: the influence of non-temporal stimulation on choice for delayed rewards Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Inge ANTROP, Auteur ; Herbert ROEYERS, Auteur ; Dieter BAEYENS, Auteur ; Pieter STOCK, Auteur ; Sylvie VERTE, Auteur ; Jan R. WIERSEMA, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.1152–1158 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Delay-aversion Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Delay aversion, the motivation to escape or avoid delay, results in preference for small immediate over large delayed rewards. Delay aversion has been proposed as one distinctive psychological process that may underlie the behavioural symptoms and cognitive deficits of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Furthermore, the delay aversion hypothesis predicts that ADHD children's preference for immediate small over large delayed rewards will be reduced when stimulation, which makes time appear to pass more quickly, is added to the delay interval. The current paper tests these predictions. Methods: A group of children with a diagnosis of ADHD (with or without oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)), a group with a diagnosis of high-functioning autism (HFA), and a normal control group were compared on an experimental paradigm giving repeated choices between small immediate and large delayed rewards (Maudsley Index of Delay Aversion–MIDA) under two conditions (stimulation and no stimulation). Results: As predicted, ADHD children displayed a stronger preference than the HFA and control children for the small immediate rewards under the no-stimulation condition. The ADHD children preferences were normalised under the stimulation condition with no differences between the groups. This pattern of results was the same whether the ADHD children had comorbid ODD or not. Discussion: The findings from the MIDA are consistent with the delay aversion hypothesis of ADHD in showing that preference for small immediate rewards over large delayed rewards is a specific feature of ADHD and that this preference can be reduced by the addition of stimulation. Further research is required to better understand the emotional and motivational mechanisms underpinning delay aversion.

Autistic traits are related to worse performance in a volatile reward learning task despite adaptive learning rates / Judith GORIS in Autism, 25-2 (February 2021)

Here, we investigated this hypothesis by estimating learning rates (i.e. the speed with which one learns) in three different environments that differed in rule stability and uncertainty. We found that neurotypical participants with more autistic traits performed worse in a volatile environment (with unstable rules), as they chose less often for the most rewarding option. Exploratory analyses indicated that performance was specifically worse when reward rules were opposite to those initially learned for participants with more autistic traits. However, there were no differences in the adjustment of learning rates between participants with more versus less autistic traits. Together, these results suggest that performance in volatile environments is lower in participants with more autistic traits, but that this performance difference cannot be unambiguously explained by an impairment in adjusting learning rates.

Disentangling Neural Sources of the Motor Interference Effect in High Functioning Autism: An EEG-Study / Eliane DESCHRIJVER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 47-3 (March 2017)

Researchers have argued that deficient control of self- and other-related motor representations (self-other distinction) might explain imitation difficulties. In a recent EEG study, we showed that control of imitation relies on high-level as well as on low-level cognitive processes. Here, we aimed to further our insights into control of imitation deficits in ASD. We focused on congruency effects in the P3 (high-level), the N190 and the readiness potential (RP; low-level). We predicted smaller congruency effects within the P3 in the ASD group. However, we found differences in the RP and not in the P3-component. Thus, high-level self-other distinction centred on motor actions may be preserved in ASD, while impairments are reflected during motor preparation.

EEG frequency tagging evidence of intact social interaction recognition in adults with autism / Danna Oomen in Autism Research, 16-6 (June 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 16-6 (June 2023) . - p.1111-1123 Titre : EEG frequency tagging evidence of intact social interaction recognition in adults with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Danna Oomen, Auteur ; Emiel Cracco, Auteur ; Marcel BRASS, Auteur ; Jan R. WIERSEMA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1111-1123 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  electroencephalography  frequency tagging  social cognition  social interaction recognition Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract To explain the social difficulties in autism, many studies have been conducted on social stimuli processing. However, this research has mostly used basic social stimuli (e.g., eyes, faces, hands, single agent), not resembling the complexity of what we encounter in our daily social lives and what people with autism experience difficulties with. Third-party social interactions are complex stimuli that we come across often and are also highly relevant for social functioning. Interestingly, the existing behavioral studies point to altered social interaction processing in autism. However, it is not clear whether this is due to altered recognition or altered interpretation of social interactions. Here, we specifically investigated the recognition of social interaction in adults with and without autism. More precisely, we measured neural responses to social scenes depicting either social interaction or not with an electroencephalogram frequency tagging task and compared these responses between adults with and without autism (N?=?61). The results revealed an enhanced response to social scenes with interaction, replicating previous findings in a neurotypical sample. Crucially, this effect was found in both groups, with no difference between them. This suggests that social interaction recognition is not atypical in adults with autism. Taken together with the previous behavioral evidence, our study thus suggests that individuals with autism are able to recognize social interactions, but that they might not extract the same information from those interactions or that they might use the extracted information differently.

Event rate and event-related potentials in ADHD / Jan R. WIERSEMA in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-6 (June 2006)

WIERSEMA, Auteur ; Herbert ROEYERS, Auteur ; Jaap VAN DER MEERE, Auteur ; Rudy VAN COSTER, Auteur ; Dieter BAEYENS, Auteur Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : p.560–567 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ADHD ODD/CD ERP event-rate effort state-regulation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: It has been repeatedly found that performance of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is more impaired when a long inter-stimulus interval (ISI) is used than when a short ISI is used. According to the cognitive-energetic model, this may reflect difficulty in remaining in an optimal motor activation state because of insufficient effort allocation. Method: Event-related potentials (ERPs) were evaluated during a Go/No-Go task that incorporates a condition with a fast and a slow presentation rate. Results: ADHD, whether or not comorbid with oppositional defiant/conduct disorder (ODD/CD), was associated with a steeper increase in reaction time (RT) from the fast to the slow condition accompanied by a missing increment of the parietal P3. Speed of responding was found to be correlated with P3 amplitude. In the fast condition, children with ADHD made more errors of commission, accompanied by a smaller No-Go N2, a component thought to be related to inhibition; however, after controlling for ODD/CD these differences disappeared. Conclusions: The association between the steeper increase in RT and reduced parietal P3s may indicate that the children with ADHD did not allocate enough extra effort to adjust to a potentially under-activated state. However, the event rate effects could not account for all of the differences between groups and also early automatic information processing stages seem disturbed in this disorder as indexed by larger P2 amplitudes. Alternative explanations are discussed.
