Abstract

It is purported that the local perceptual style characteristic of those with autism results in them reproducing line drawings in a more localised manner than comparison individuals. Here we report an exception to this: the drawing strategies of those with autism were more global. When reproducing line drawings depicting three-dimensional objects, a sample of fifty-six participants with autism showed a greater tendency to begin by copying the two-dimensional outline of the figure than fifty-seven matched comparison participants (39.3% versus 8.8% of group; chi(1)2 = 14.46, p < 0.0005). We argue that this is consistent with the perception of those with autism being less conceptually driven, but not necessarily less global.

摘要

据称，自闭症患者的局部感知风格特征导致他们在复制线条画时比对照组个体更具局部性。在此我们报告一个例外情况：自闭症患者的绘画策略更具全局性。在复制描绘三维物体的线条画时，56名自闭症患者样本比57名匹配的对照组参与者更倾向于先复制图形的二维轮廓（分别占各自组的39.3%和8.8%；卡方检验χ(1)2 = 14.46，p < 0.0005）。我们认为，这与自闭症患者的感知较少受概念驱动是一致的，但不一定意味着全局性较差。
