Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 38-10 (November 2008) . - 1837-1847 Titre : Color Perception in Children with Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Anna FRANKLIN, Auteur ; Paul SOWDEN, Auteur ; Rachel BURLEY, Auteur ; Leslie NOTMAN, Auteur ; Elizabeth ALDER, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : 1837-1847 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Color Perception Categorization Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined whether color perception is atypical in children with autism. In experiment 1, accuracy of color memory and search was compared for children with autism and typically developing children matched on age and non-verbal cognitive ability. Children with autism were significantly less accurate at color memory and search than controls. In experiment 2, chromatic discrimination and categorical perception of color were assessed using a target detection task. Children with autism were less accurate than controls at detecting chromatic targets when presented on chromatic backgrounds, although were equally as fast when target detection was accurate. The strength of categorical perception of color did not differ for the two groups. Implications for theories on perceptual development in autism are discussed.
