Autistic traits vary across the general population, and are linked with face recognition ability. Here we investigated potential links between autistic traits and voice recognition ability for personally familiar voices in a group of 30 listeners (15 female, 16-19 years) from the same local school. Autistic traits (particularly those related to communication and social interaction) were negatively correlated with voice recognition, such that more autistic traits were associated with fewer familiar voices identified and less ability to discriminate familiar from unfamiliar voices. In addition, our results suggest enhanced accessibility of personal semantic information in women compared to men. Overall, this study establishes a detailed pattern of relationships between voice identification performance and autistic traits in the general population.
自闭症特质在普通人群中存在差异,并与面部识别能力有关。在这里,我们在一个由当地同校的 30 名听众(15 名女性,年龄 16-19 岁)组成的群体中,调查了自闭症特质与个人熟悉声音的语音识别能力之间的潜在联系。自闭症特质(特别是与沟通和社交互动相关的特质)与语音识别能力呈负相关,也就是说,自闭症特质越多,识别的熟悉声音越少,区分熟悉和不熟悉声音的能力越差。此外,我们的研究结果表明,女性的个人语义信息比男性更容易获取。总的来说,这项研究在普通人群中建立了语音识别表现与自闭症特质之间的详细关系模式。
