Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Individuals with broad autism phenotype (BAP) showed a diminished ability to recognize emotion. This study aims to examine whether their decline in emotion recognition ability could be more clearly identified as task complexity increased and whether their decline could be influenced by their eye-gaze patterns.
UNASSIGNED: 41 individuals with BAP and 40 healthy controls performed two types of emotion recognition tasks. After confirming conditions wherein the BAP group did not perform well compared to the control group, we compared gaze proportion on faces and context between groups when performing the conditions.
UNASSIGNED: The more difficult the task, the clearer the significant relationships between the level of autistic traits and emotion recognition ability. The BAP group showed lower accuracy compared to the control group when a face with mild emotional intensity was presented with context. In terms of gaze proportion, the BAP group looked less at faces when recognizing emotions compared to the control group.
UNASSIGNED: These findings indicate that diminished emotion recognition ability in individuals with BAP may be influenced by face gaze.
摘要:
具有广泛自闭症表型(BAP)的个体表现出识别情绪的能力减弱。这项研究旨在研究随着任务复杂性的增加,他们的情绪识别能力的下降是否可以更清楚地识别出来,以及他们的视线模式是否会影响他们的下降。
41名BAP患者和40名健康对照者执行了两种类型的情绪识别任务。在确认BAP组与对照组相比表现不佳的情况后,在执行条件时,我们比较了两组之间面部和上下文的凝视比例。
任务越困难,自闭症特质水平与情绪识别能力之间的显著关系越清晰。与对照组相比,BAP组显示的准确性较低。就凝视比例而言,与对照组相比,BAP组在识别情绪时观察面部的次数较少。
这些发现表明,BAP患者的情绪识别能力下降可能受到面部凝视的影响。
