Therefore, exploring factors associated with prosocial behavior in individuals with elevated levels of autistic traits may offer valuable insights into both autistic traits and prosocial behavior. In this study, our goal was to determine the relationship between autistic traits and prosocial tendencies, examining the cascading mediating effects of internal factors related to the need for connection, including fear of missing out (FoMO) and interpersonal security. We utilized the Autism Quotient (AQ) scale, the FoMO scale, the College Students' Interpersonal Security Questionnaire (CSISQ), and the Prosocial Tendencies Measure (PTM) in a paper-and-pencil survey administered to 408 college and graduate students in Guangdong Province, China. The results indicated a fully mediated relationship between autistic traits and prosocial tendencies by FoMO and interpersonal security. These findings are interpreted within the framework of social-psychological theory, suggesting that high levels of autistic traits may contribute to interpersonal problems, exacerbating the FoMO, limiting social homogeneity, and reducing interpersonal security. These factors are closely related to prosocial tendencies. Simultaneously, elevated levels of autistic traits may influence interpersonal security, stemming from challenges in social interactions. Unmet psychological needs could potentially heighten anxiety levels, prompting individuals to become more self-focused and seek external compensation. This heightened fear of missing out and the depletion of psychological resources might be associated with a decline in prosocial tendencies.

The effect of autistic traits on prosocial behavior: The chain mediating role of received social support and perceived social support / Shuhua ZHANG in Autism, 28-3 (March 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 28-3 (March 2024) . - p.600-615 Titre : The effect of autistic traits on prosocial behavior: The chain mediating role of received social support and perceived social support Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Shuhua ZHANG, Auteur ; Hong LI, Auteur ; Hai LI, Auteur ; Shuo ZHAO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.600-615 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  autistic traits  chain mediation  perceived social support  prosocial behavior  received social support Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is growing evidence that the defining characteristics of autism spectrum disorder are distributed across the general population; therefore, understanding the correlates of prosocial behavior in individuals with high levels of autistic traits could shed light on autism spectrum disorder and prosocial behavior. In this study, the mechanism underlying the influence of individuals' autistic traits on their prosocial behavior was explored by conducting a questionnaire survey of 414 Chinese college students. The results showed that autistic traits can influence individuals' prosocial behavior not only through the separate effects of received social support and perceived social support but also through the chain mediating effects of received social support and perceived social support; however, the direct effect of autistic traits on individuals' prosocial behavior is not significant. This study is conducive to understanding the internal mechanism underlying the relationship between autistic traits and prosocial behavior. Future work is required to further investigate the clinical autism spectrum disorder samples and cross-cultural applicability of the model found in this study. Lay abstract Autistic traits are known to be associated with a set of core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder. The impact of autistic traits on prosocial behavior, including a consideration of the role of social support, has never been explored. We investigated whether and how social support mediates the autistic trait-prosocial behavior relationship. We found that autistic traits can influence prosocial behavior not only through received social support and perceived social support but also indirectly through the chain mediating effects of received social support and perceived social support. This study contributes to the understanding of how and to what extent prosocial behavior is influenced by autistic traits. Future work is required to further investigate the clinical autism spectrum disorder samples and cross-cultural applicability of the model found in this study.
