The present study examined whether adults with high functioning autism (HFA) showed greater difficulties in (1) their self-reported ability to empathise with others and/or (2) their ability to read mental states in others' eyes than adults with Asperger syndrome (AS). The Empathy Quotient (EQ) and 'Reading the Mind in the Eyes' Test (Eyes Test) were compared in 43 adults with AS and 43 adults with HFA. No significant difference was observed on EQ score between groups, while adults with AS performed significantly better on the Eyes Test than those with HFA. This suggests that adults with HFA may need more support, particularly in mentalizing and complex emotion recognition, and raises questions about the existence of subgroups within autism spectrum conditions.
本研究考察了高功能自闭症（HFA）成人在以下方面是否比阿斯伯格综合征（AS）成人存在更大困难：（1）他们自我报告的共情他人的能力，和/或（2）他们从他人眼睛中读取心理状态的能力。对43名AS成人和43名HFA成人进行了共情商数（EQ）和“从眼睛中解读心理”测试（眼睛测试）。两组在EQ得分上未观察到显著差异，而AS成人在眼睛测试中的表现显著优于HFA成人。这表明HFA成人可能需要更多支持，尤其是在心理化和复杂情绪识别方面，并且引发了关于自闭症谱系障碍中是否存在亚组的问题。
