Inner speech impairments in autism
Abstract
Background: Three experiments investigated the role of inner speech deficit in cognitive performances of children with autism. Methods: Experiment 1 compared children with autism with ability‐matched controls on a verbal recall task presenting pictures and words. Experiment 2 used pictures for which the typical names were either single syllable or multisyllable. Two encoding conditions manipulated the use of verbal encoding. Experiment 3 employed a task‐switching paradigm for which performance has been shown to be contingent upon inner speech. Results: In Experiment 1, children with autism demonstrated a lower picture‐superiority effect compared to controls. In Experiment 2, the children with autism showed a lower word‐length effect when pictures were presented alone, but a more substantial word‐length effect in a condition requiring overt labelling. In Experiment 3, articulatory suppression affected the task‐switching performance of the control participants only. Conclusions: Individuals with autism have limitations in their use of inner speech.

“As a second example, atypical ToM has for a long time been considered a core feature of autism spectrum disorder (Baron-Cohen et al., 1985), but differences in inner speech in autism have only been studied relatively recently (Whitehouse et al., 2006; Wallace et al., 2009; Holland and Low, 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
