Do measures of memory, language, and attention predict eyewitness memory in children with and without autism? / Lucy A. HENRY in Autism & Developmental Language Impairments, 2 (January-December 2017)

Titre : Do measures of memory, language, and attention predict eyewitness memory in children with and without autism? Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lucy A. HENRY, Auteur ; David J. MESSER, Auteur ; Rachel WILCOCK, Auteur ; Gilly NASH, Auteur ; Mimi KIRKE-SMITH, Auteur ; Zoe HOBSON, Auteur ; Laura CRANE, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background and aimsThere are few investigations of the relationship between cognitive abilities (memory, language, and attention) and children?s eyewitness performance in typically developing children, and even fewer in children on the autism spectrum. Such investigations are important to identify key cognitive processes underlying eyewitness recall, and assess how predictive such measures are compared to intelligence, diagnostic group status (autism or typically developing) and age.MethodsA total of 272 children (162 boys, 110 girls) of age 76 months to 142 months (M=105 months) took part in this investigation: 71 children with autism and 201 children with typical development. The children saw a staged event involving a minor mock crime and were asked about what they had witnessed in an immediate Brief Interview. This focused on free recall, included a small number of open-ended questions, and was designed to resemble an initial evidence gathering statement taken by police officers arriving at a crime scene. Children were also given standardised tests of intelligence, memory, language, and attention.Results & conclusionsDespite the autism group recalling significantly fewer items of correct information than the typically developing group at Brief Interview, both groups were equally accurate in their recall: 89% of details recalled by the typically developing group and 87% of the details recalled by the autism group were correct. To explore the relationship between Brief Interview performance and the cognitive variables, alongside age, diagnostic group status and non-verbal intelligence quotient, multiple hierarchical regression analyses were conducted, with Brief Interview performance as the dependant variable. Age and diagnostic group status were significant predictors of correct recall, whereas non-verbal intelligence was less important. After age, non-verbal intelligence, and diagnostic group status had been accounted for, the only cognitive variables that were significant predictors of Brief Interview performance were measures of memory (specifically, memory for faces and memory for stories). There was little evidence of there being differences between the autism and typically developing groups in the way the cognitive variables predicted the Brief Interview.ImplicationsThe findings provide reassurance that age ? the most straightforward information to which all relevant criminal justice professionals have access ? provides a helpful indication of eyewitness performance. The accuracy of prediction can be improved by knowing the child?s diagnostic status (i.e. whether the child is on the autism spectrum), and further still by using more specific assessments (namely memory for faces and memory for stories), possibly via the input of a trained professional. Importantly, the findings also confirm that whilst children with autism may recall less information than typically developing children, the information they do recall is just as accurate.

Titre : Dropping the mask: It takes two Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Julia M. COOK, Auteur ; Laura CRANE, Auteur ; William MANDY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.831-842 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adults,autism spectrum disorders,camouflaging,qualitative research,social cognition and social behaviour Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In some social situations, autistic people feel pressure to modify their innate social behaviour (i.e. camouflage), while in other social situations they feel free to engage in ways that feel authentic or true to themselves. To date, the latter aspect of autistic people?s experience has rarely been explored. Using an online qualitative survey, this study examined 133 autistic people?s experiences and perspectives of socialising in ways that felt authentic to them, with a particular focus on mixed-neurotype interactions and the role of nonautistic people. Using reflexive thematic analysis, four themes were generated: (1) embracing diverse communication styles, interests and perspectives; (2) creating a more inclusive mixed-neurotype social environment together; (3) minimising and managing mixed-neurotype miscommunication in mutually beneficial ways; and (4) enjoyable interactions involving reduced anxiety and exhaustion as well as genuine connection and rapport. These findings are discussed with reference to theory and research involving the construct of authenticity both inside and outside the field of autism research. The knowledge generated in this study illuminates a previously underexplored aspect of autistic people?s experience and elucidates potential avenues through which to enhance the social experiences and well-being of this group. Lay abstract In some situations, autistic people feel pressure to change their social behaviour by camouflaging. In other situations, autistic people feel they don?t need to change their social behaviour. Instead, they feel they can socialise in ways that feel authentic or true to themselves. Past research has tended to focus on autistic people?s experiences of camouflaging rather than their experiences of authenticity. In this study, we asked autistic people what it is like for them when they can socialise in ways that feel authentic or true to themselves. Autistic people described authentic-feeling socialising as more free, spontaneous and open than camouflaging. In supportive environments, this kind of socialising had more positive and less negative consequences than camouflaging. Autistic people felt that having self-awareness and acceptance of their own social needs and being around autistic and nonautistic people who were accepting and understanding helped them to socialise in authentic-feeling ways. Autistic people also spoke about communication behaviours they felt nonautistic people should use to help overcome misunderstandings and create autism-friendly social environments. These findings suggest it is helpful for autistic people to have access to supportive and accepting social environments in which they feel able to socialise in ways that feel authentic to them. In creating such social environments, it is important to focus on nonautistic people?s knowledge and attitude towards autistic people and also their ability to use helpful communication behaviours.

Titre : Episodic and Semantic Autobiographical Memory in Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Laura CRANE, Auteur ; Lorna GODDARD, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.498-506 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Autobiographical-memory Episodic Semantic Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Episodic and semantic autobiographical memories were examined in a group of adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and a control group matched for age, gender and IQ. Results demonstrated a personal episodic memory deficit in the ASD group in the absence of a personal semantic memory deficit, suggesting a deficit dissociation between these two components of memory in ASD. Further analysis of memories across different lifetime periods revealed the adolescent and early adult lifetime periods to facilitate memory recall in the control group, but not in the ASD group. These findings suggest a distinctive pattern of remembering in ASD.

Titre : Executive functions in savant artists with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Laura CRANE, Auteur ; Linda PRING, Auteur ; Nicola RYDER, Auteur ; Beate HERMELIN, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.790-797 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Savants Executive functions Art Fluency Card sort Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Although executive functions have been widely studied in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), there have been no direct empirical studies of executive abilities in savants with ASD. This study assessed three facets of executive ability (fluency, perseveration and monitoring) in savant artists with ASD, compared to non-talented adults with ASD or mild/moderate learning difficulties (MLD). Executive functions were assessed in and out of the savants’ domain of expertise: on design fluency and card sort tasks, respectively. The design fluency task suggested a sparing of executive abilities in the savant artists, relative to the non-talented ASD group; an effect not observed on the card sort task. The idea that islets of ability involve functions that are protected from more general cognitive deficits in ASD is explored.

The results revealed that parents usually waited a year from when they first had concerns about their child’s development before they sought professional help. On average, there was a delay of around 3.5?years from the point at which parents first approached a health professional with their concerns to the confirmation of an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. Just over half of the parents surveyed were dissatisfied with the diagnostic process as a whole. Several factors predicted parents’ overall levels of satisfaction with the diagnostic process, including the time taken to receive a diagnosis, satisfaction with the information provided at diagnosis, the manner of the diagnosing professional, the stress associated with the diagnostic process and satisfaction with post-diagnostic support. Post-diagnosis, the support (if any) that was provided to parents was deemed unsatisfactory, and this was highlighted as an area of particular concern among parents.
