Saskia Riedelbauch; Sebastian B. Gaigg; Tobias Thiel; Veit Roessner; Melanie Ring – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Anxiety disorders commonly occur in autism. Existing studies implicate intolerance of uncertainty, alexithymia, sensory processing differences and emotion regulation difficulties as influencing factors of anxiety in autism. To date, a few studies have considered the combination of these factors within the same sample. This study used structural…

Slavny-Cross, Rachel; Allison, Carrie; Griffiths, Sarah; Baron-Cohen, Simon – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
The UK government identified 'improving support within the criminal justice systems' as a priority for autistic people. There is a lack of quantitative research to enable policymakers to make evidence-based decisions on how to improve access to justice for autistic people. This study used a case-comparison design to compare the experiences of 145…

Weir, Elizabeth; Allison, Carrie; Warrier, Varun; Baron-Cohen, Simon – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Autistic individuals may be at risk of premature mortality, and physical health comorbidity increases this risk; however, most studies fail to include older autistic adults or consider lifestyle-related factors that affect health. We developed an anonymous, online physical health survey. The final sample included n = 2368 individuals (mean age =…

Albantakis, Laura; Brandi, Marie-Luise; Zillekens, Imme Christina; Henco, Lara; Weindel, Leonie; Thaler, Hanna; Schliephake, Lena; Timmermans, Bert; Schilbach, Leonhard – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
High alexithymic traits and psychiatric comorbidities such as depression and social phobia are frequently observed among adults with autism spectrum disorder. In this study, we tested whether alexithymic and/or autistic traits are risk factors for depressive and social phobic symptoms in adults with autism spectrum disorder (n = 122), patients…

Intaite, Monika; Georgescu, Alexandra L.; Noreika, Valdas; von Saldern, Marie A. O.; Vogeley, Kai; Falter-Wagner, Christine M. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
We examined the perception of an ambiguous squares stimulus evoking bistable perception in a sample of 31 individuals with autistic spectrum condition and 22 matched typical adults. The perception of the ambiguous figure was manipulated by adaptation to unambiguous figures and/or by placing the ambiguous figure into a context of unambiguous…

Dysfunctions of the human mirror neuron system have been postulated to underlie some deficits in autism spectrum disorders including poor imitative performance and impaired social skills. Using three reaction time experiments addressing mirror neuron system functions under simple and complex conditions, we examined 20 adult autism spectrum…

Aldaqre, Iyad; Paulus, Markus; Sodian, Beate – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2015
While typically developing children can use referential gaze to guide their word learning, those with autism spectrum disorder are often described to have problems with that. However, some researchers assume that the ability to follow gaze to select the correct referent can develop in autism later compared to typically developing individuals. To…

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between explicit and implicit forms of Theory of Mind reasoning and to test the influence of experience on implicit Theory of Mind reasoning in individuals with autism spectrum disorders and in neurotypical adults. Results from two standard explicit Theory of Mind tasks are mixed: Individuals with…
