Abstract:
Phenomenological approaches suggest that the bodily presence of others has a profound influence on the experience of social spaces. This intimate relationship is particularly evident in mental disorders. Investigations into the nature of intersubjectivity in various pathologies indicate that modifications to the capacity for social perception play a key role in determining the manners in which the social space is experienced and felt. This paper aims to examine the interviewing relation of social perception and the experience of space and its consequences in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This is done through a phenomenologically informed analysis of the functioning of social perception in ASD. Our account proposes that the atypical socio-perceptual patterns exhibited by people with autism significantly reduce the capacity to grasp the context of the situation, which facilitates and intensifies negative feelings that are intertwined with the experience of social spaces. This novel understanding draws on the idea that ASD involves a fundamental difficulty to establish a gestalt perception of social scenes. The evidence we discuss suggests that this anomaly in the operation of social perception also modulates the experience of the social space. Failing to perceive the wholeness of the situation means that people with autism often experience the social space as unfamiliar, confusing, uncertain, and unsafe, rather than feeling familiar and understood in the embodied presence of others. As a result, autistic subjects may experience difficulty evaluating the outcomes of hazardous circumstances, which poses a risk to their well-being, particularly in borderline situations. This suggestion is elaborated through the tragic occurrences that led to the killing of Eyad al-Hallaq, a 32-year-old Palestinian with autism.
摘要:
现象学方法表明,他人的身体存在对社会空间的体验具有深远的影响。这种亲密关系在精神障碍中尤为明显。对各种病理中主体间性性质的调查表明,对社会感知能力的修改在确定体验和感受社会空间的方式中起着关键作用。本文旨在研究自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)中社会感知与空间体验的访谈关系及其后果。这是通过对ASD中社会感知功能的现象学分析来完成的。我们的帐户提出,自闭症患者表现出的非典型社会感知模式显着降低了把握情境背景的能力,这促进并加剧了与社交空间经验交织在一起的负面情绪。这种新颖的理解借鉴了这样一种观点,即ASD涉及建立对社会场景的格式塔感知的根本困难。我们讨论的证据表明,社会感知运作中的这种异常也会调节社会空间的体验。未能感知到情况的整体性意味着自闭症患者经常将社交空间视为陌生的,令人困惑,不确定,不安全,而不是在他人的具体存在中感到熟悉和理解。因此,自闭症受试者可能难以评估危险环境的结果,这对他们的福祉构成了风险,特别是在边缘情况下。这一建议是通过导致埃亚德·哈拉克被杀的悲惨事件来阐述的,一名32岁的巴勒斯坦自闭症患者.
