Although deficits in Executive Functioning (EF) are reported frequently in young individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), they remain relatively unexplored later in life (>50 years). We studied objective performance on EF measures (Tower of London, Zoo map, phonetic/semantic fluency) as well as subjective complaints (self- and proxy reported BRIEF) in 36 ASD and 36 typically developed individuals (n = 72). High functioning older adults with ASD reported EF-impairments in metacognition, but did not deviate in EF task performance, except for a longer execution time of the Tower of London. The need for additional time to complete daily tasks may contribute to impairments in daily life and may be correlated to a higher level of experienced EF-difficulties in ASD.
尽管在患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的年轻人中，执行功能（EF）缺陷的报告很常见，但在晚年（>50岁）相对仍未得到充分研究。我们研究了36名ASD患者和36名发育正常个体（n = 72）在EF测量（伦敦塔、动物园地图、语音/语义流畅性）方面的客观表现以及主观抱怨（自我和代理报告的BRIEF）。患有ASD的高功能老年人报告了元认知方面的EF损伤，但在EF任务表现上没有偏差，除了伦敦塔的执行时间较长。完成日常任务需要额外时间可能会导致日常生活受损，并且可能与ASD中更高水平的EF困难体验相关。
