A reanalysis of data from an experimental study of autistic negativism is presented. Subjects were autistic, behavior-disturbed, or normal and ranged in age from 5 to 12 years. There were nine subjects per group. Experimental conditions consisted of a verbal request for a verbal response, a nonverbal request for a nonverbal response, and a verbal request for a nonverbal response. Data were reanalyzed by dichotomizing subjects as either compliant or noncompliant on the basis of the number of correct responses; scalogram analysis was then performed on the dichotomized data. The children's responses to the messages formed a cumulative, unidimensional hierarchy based on the individual patterns of responses, with verbal requests for verbal responses eliciting the least compliance and verbal requests for nonverbal responses the most. Implications of the hierarchy for a developmental theory of autistic negativism and the relationship of task demands to compliance are discussed.
本文对一项关于自闭症抗拒行为的实验研究数据进行了重新分析。研究对象包括自闭症儿童、行为障碍儿童和正常儿童，年龄在5至12岁之间。每组有9名研究对象。实验条件包括要求言语回应的言语请求、要求非言语回应的非言语请求以及要求非言语回应的言语请求。根据正确回应的数量将研究对象分为顺从组和不顺从组，然后对二分数据进行量表分析。儿童对这些信息的回应基于个体回应模式形成了一个累积的、单维的层次结构，其中要求言语回应的言语请求引发的顺从最少，要求非言语回应的言语请求引发的顺从最多。文中讨论了该层次结构对自闭症抗拒行为发展理论的意义以及任务要求与顺从之间的关系。
