Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of two intervention strategies – identifying the global letter of Navon letters and verbally describing a face – in improving face recognition abilities of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Design/methodology/approach A total of 15 adolescents with ASD and 15 typically developing (TD) adolescents participated in this study, which consisted of three experimental conditions: verbalization, Navon and control. Participants were presented with a target face for a short period of time, then completed a task specific to the condition in a counterbalanced order, followed by a face recognition task. Findings The results of this study showed no significant interaction effects between groups and conditions, either in accuracy or reaction time. However, TD adolescents performed better than ASD adolescents in terms of accuracy. In addition, the verbalization condition resulted in better performance with slower response times compared to the control condition. Originality/value These findings suggest that verbalization may be a useful strategy to enhance face recognition abilities in ASD and TD individuals.

探索提高自闭症谱系障碍青少年人脸识别能力的干预策略:评估言语化和Navon任务的影响
目的本研究的目的是检验两种干预策略——识别Navon字母的全球字母和口头描述人脸——在提高自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)青少年的人脸识别能力方面的有效性本研究包括三个实验条件:言语化、Navon和对照。参与者在短时间内被呈现一张目标人脸,然后以平衡的顺序完成特定于该条件的任务,然后是人脸识别任务。结果这项研究的结果表明,无论是在准确性还是反应时间上,组和条件之间都没有显著的相互作用影响。然而,就准确性而言,TD青少年的表现要好于ASD青少年。此外,与控制条件相比,言语化条件具有更好的性能,响应时间较慢。原创性/价值这些发现表明,言语化可能是提高ASD和TD个体人脸识别能力的有用策略。
