Consistent with the literature on typically developing people's engagement with music, the analysis showed that most participants exploit music for a wide range of purposes in the cognitive, emotional and social domains, including mood management, personal development and social inclusion. However, in contrast to typically developing people, the ASD group's descriptions of mood states reflected a greater reliance on internally focused (arousal) rather than externally focused (emotive) language.

The Effects of Autism and Alexithymia on Physiological and Verbal Responsiveness to Music / Rory ALLEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-2 (February 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 43-2 (February 2013) . - p.432-444 Titre : The Effects of Autism and Alexithymia on Physiological and Verbal Responsiveness to Music Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Rory ALLEN, Auteur ; Rob DAVIS, Auteur ; Elisabeth HILL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.432-444 Langues : (Eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Music  Alexithymia  Emotion Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : It has been suggested that individuals with autism will be less responsive to the emotional content of music than typical individuals. With the aim of testing this hypothesis, a group of high-functioning adults on the autism spectrum was compared with a group of matched controls on two measures of emotional responsiveness to music, comprising physiological and verbal measures. Impairment in participants ability to verbalize their emotions (type-II alexithymia) was also assessed. The groups did not differ significantly on physiological responsiveness, but the autism group was significantly lower on the verbal measure. However, inclusion of the alexithymia score as a mediator variable nullified this group difference, suggesting that the difference was due not to absence of underlying emotional responsiveness to music in autism, but to a reduced ability to articulate it.
