Youth who lose their ASD diagnosis may have subtle social and communication difficulties. We examined social and communication functioning in 44 high-functioning autism (HFA), 34 optimal outcome (OO) and 34 typically developing (TD) youth. Results indicated that OO participants had no autism communication symptoms, no pragmatic language deficits, and were judged as likable as TD peers. Some group differences were found: OO youth had less insight into social relationships and poorer friendship descriptions than TD youth. OO participants had attention, self-control, and immaturity difficulties that may impact social abilities. However, OO participants were most engaged, friendliest, warmest, and most approachable. Overall, OO participants had no social and communicative impairments, although some exhibited mild social difficulties that often accompany attentional problems.
不再被诊断为患有自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的青少年可能存在细微的社交和沟通困难。我们对44名高功能自闭症(HFA)青少年、34名获得最佳康复效果(OO)的青少年和34名发育正常(TD)的青少年的社交和沟通功能进行了研究。结果表明,获得最佳康复效果的参与者没有自闭症沟通症状,没有语用语言缺陷,并且被认为与发育正常的同龄人一样讨人喜欢。发现了一些组间差异:与发育正常的青少年相比,获得最佳康复效果的青少年对社会关系的洞察力较低,对友谊的描述较差。获得最佳康复效果的参与者存在注意力、自我控制和不成熟方面的困难,这些可能会影响社交能力。然而,获得最佳康复效果的参与者参与度最高、最友好、最热情且最容易接近。总体而言,获得最佳康复效果的参与者没有社交和沟通障碍,尽管有些人表现出一些往往伴随注意力问题的轻度社交困难。
