Self-perception in high-functioning children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) was examined by comparing parent- and self-reports on the Autism Spectrum, Empathy, and Systemizing Quotients (AQ, EQ and SQ). Participants were 20 youths with ASD and 22 typically developing controls. Both parents and participants in the ASD group reported more autistic traits (higher AQ) and less empathy (lower EQ) than the control group. SQ ratings did not differ between groups. Comparisons of self- and parent-reports indicated that youths with ASD reported significantly fewer autistic traits and more empathic features than their parents attributed to them. There were no discrepancies between parent- and self-reports in the control group. Implications regarding the use of self-report in ASD are discussed.
本研究通过比较自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)儿童和青少年的家长报告和自我报告,考察了高功能 ASD 患者的自我认知。研究参与者为 20 名 ASD 青少年和 22 名对照组青少年。与对照组相比,ASD 组的家长和参与者报告了更多的自闭症特征(较高的 AQ)和较少的同理心(较低的 EQ)。两组的 SQ 评分没有差异。自我报告和家长报告的比较表明,与家长对他们的评价相比,ASD 青少年报告的自闭症特征明显较少,同理心特征明显较多。对照组中,家长报告和自我报告之间没有差异。本文讨论了在 ASD 中使用自我报告的相关问题。
