Components of person perception: An investigation with autistic, non-autistic retarded and typically developing children and adolescents
Abstract
This study is an attempt to analyse whether there may be separable components to the human ability to perceive people as people who engage in actions and who have attitudes. We adopted the approach of developmental psychopathology. Matched groups of typically developing, autistic and non‐autistic retarded (MR) children and adolescents were tested for the ability to recognize videotaped representations of ‘a person’, a person's actions and a person's emotion‐related attitudes and allied subjective states as manifest in moving point‐light images of people. Autistic and non‐autistic MR participants did not differ in the ability to recognize that a person was represented in very brief exposures of a walking point‐light display; autistic, MR and typically developing participants were equally able to recognize a person's actions. Non‐autistic MR and typically developing participants were also similar in their propensity to notice a person's attitudes vis‐à‐vis the person's actions, and in their abilities to recognize actions and attitudes when specifically asked to do so. By comparison, however, autistic participants were specifically impaired in attending to and discriminating people's attitudes and states. The results are discussed in relation to current debates on the nature of basic person‐perceptual abilities that may underpin typically developing children's understanding of persons with minds ('theory of mind'). We also consider their relevance for controversies over the primary deficits in autism.

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.
