Using a schema-theoretical perspective in the field of moral cognition, we assessed response behavior of adolescent (n = 15) and adult (n = 22) individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in comparison with adolescent (n = 22) and adult (n = 22) neurotypically developed controls. We conceptualized the Intuitive Moral Reasoning Test-in five moral dilemmas, participants had to choose between two alternative actions and assess their decision with respect to emotional valence, arousal, moral acceptability and permissibility from both the perspective of the acting person and then of the victim. Patients with ASD displayed a different decision and response behavior, particularly when the dilemmas were based on extreme life situations in combination with a social schema involving close social relationships.
我们采用道德认知领域的图式理论视角,评估了自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)青少年(n=15)和成人(n=22)个体与神经典型青少年(n=22)和成人(n=22)对照组的反应行为。我们将直觉道德推理测试应用于五个道德困境中,参与者必须在两个替代行为之间做出选择,并从行为人和受害者两个角度评估其决策的情绪效价、唤醒度、道德可接受性和允许性。ASD 患者表现出不同的决策和反应行为,特别是当困境基于极端生活情境且涉及涉及亲密社会关系的社会图式时。
