Titre : Brief Report: Attentional Cueing to Images of Social Interactions is Automatic for Neurotypical Individuals But Not Those with ASC Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : M. N. MORRISEY, Auteur ; C. L. REED, Auteur ; D. N. MCINTOSH, Auteur ; Melissa D. RUTHERFORD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3233-3243 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders Reflexive attention Social cognition Social orienting Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Human actions induce attentional orienting toward the target of the action. We examined the influence of action cueing in social (man throwing toward a human) and non-social (man throwing toward a tree) contexts in observers with and without autism spectrum condition (ASC). Results suggested that a social interaction enhanced the cueing effect for neurotypical participants. Participants with ASC did not benefit from non-predictive cues and were slower in social contexts, although they benefitted from reliably predictive cues. Social orienting appears to be automatic in the context of an implied social interaction for neurotypical observers, but not those with ASC. Neurotypical participants' behavior may be driven by automatic processing, while participants with ASC use an alternative, effortful strategy.

Titre : Brief Report: Infants Developing with ASD Show a Unique Developmental Pattern of Facial Feature Scanning Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melissa D. RUTHERFORD, Auteur ; Jennifer A. WALSH, Auteur ; Vivian LEE, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.2618-2623 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Face scanning Autism Language development Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Infants are interested in eyes, but look preferentially at mouths toward the end of the first year, when word learning begins. Language delays are characteristic of children developing with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We measured how infants at risk for ASD, control infants, and infants who later reached ASD criterion scanned facial features. Development differed across groups. The preference for the eyes region decreased with age in infants who were at risk of ASD. For the control group the change in feature preference was marginally significant for a quadratic model, reflecting a decrease in the preference for eyes at 9 months followed by a recovery. The infants who later reached ASD criterion did not show a significant change across time.

Titre : Children with autism spectrum disorder have an exceptional explanatory drive Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melissa D. RUTHERFORD, Auteur ; Francys SUBIAUL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.744-753 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : explanatory drive social cognition systemizing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : An “explanatory drive” motivates children to explain ambiguity. Individuals with autism spectrum disorders are interested in how systems work, but it is unknown whether they have an explanatory drive. We presented children with and without autism spectrum disorder unsolvable problems in a physical and in a social context and evaluated problem-solving and explanation-seeking responses. In the physical context (but not the social context), the children with autism spectrum disorder showed a stronger explanatory drive than controls. Importantly, the number of explanatory behaviors made by children with autism spectrum disorder in the social context was independent of social and communicative impairments. Children with autism spectrum disorder did not show an exceptional explanatory drive in the social domain. These results suggest that children with autism spectrum disorder have an explanatory drive and that the explanatory drive may be domain specific.

Titre : Distinct Biological Motion Perception in Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Meta-Analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Victoria FOGLIA, Auteur ; Hasan SIDDIQUI, Auteur ; Zainab KHAN, Auteur ; Stephanie LIANG, Auteur ; Melissa D. RUTHERFORD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.4843-4860 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder/psychology Humans Motion Perception Autism spectrum disorder Biological motion perception Iq Point-light display Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : If neurotypical people rely on specialized perceptual mechanisms when perceiving biological motion, then one would not expect an association between task performance and IQ. However, if those with ASD recruit higher order cognitive skills when solving biological motion tasks, performance may be predicted by IQ. In a meta-analysis that included 19 articles, we found an association between biological motion perception and IQ among observers with ASD but no significant relationship among typical observers. If the task required emotion perception, then there was an even stronger association with IQ in the ASD group.

Titre : Emotion Perception or Social Cognitive Complexity: What Drives Face Processing Deficits in Autism Spectrum Disorder? Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jennifer A. WALSH, Auteur ; Sarah E. CREIGHTON, Auteur ; Melissa D. RUTHERFORD, Auteur Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p.615-623 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Face processing Facial expression perception Trustworthiness perception Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Some, but not all, relevant studies have revealed face processing deficits among those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In particular, deficits are revealed in face processing tasks that involve emotion perception. The current study examined whether either deficits in processing emotional expression or deficits in processing social cognitive complexity drive face processing deficits in ASD. We tested adults with and without ASD on a battery of face processing tasks that varied with respect to emotional expression processing and social cognitive complexity. Results revealed significant group differences on tasks involving emotional expression processing, but typical performance on a non-emotional but socially complex task. These results support an emotion processing rather than a social complexity explanation for face processing deficits in ASD.
