摘要
为探查自闭症儿童的分类能力,采用类别判断任务,比较了刺激的典型性对12名汉语自闭症儿童和相匹配控制组儿童分类正确率和反应时的影响。研究发现,自闭症组在典型刺激上的分类能力与控制组大致相同,但在不典型刺激上的分类能力明显更差,表明自闭症儿童既有一定的分类能力,又存在内在的缺陷。研究结果支持自闭症"弱的中心统合理论"。
In order to investigate-the categorizing ability in children with autism, this study used the ＂Category Verification＂ procedure and examined the effect of exemplar typicality on the reaction time and accuracy, of categorization in 12 Chinese children with autism and the matched controls. It is found that the children with autism responded to typical exemplars in the same manner as the matched controls. However, they responded to atypical exemplars much worse than the matched controls. The results showed a pattern of intact and impaired categorizing functions in chidren with autism. The results provided supports for the ＂weak central coherence theory＂.
