摘要

自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的特征是社交能力差;由于心理理论(ToM)是社会沟通技能和成功社会融合的基石,所以在准备和监控教育和治疗计划时,评估这些技能是很重要的。ToM是一种复杂的技能,需要形成心理概念的能力,口头表达复杂结构的能力,抑制某些心理状态以支持其他心理状态的能力,以及考虑和比较多个角度的能力。考虑认知对发展和传达ToM技能能力的影响是至关重要的,以确保其他认知领域的缺陷不会错误地表现为ToM缺陷。这一考虑对于ASD人群尤其重要,因为他们不仅在ToM方面有已知的困难,而且在智力功能、语言和执行功能方面也有已知的困难。本文综述了智力、语言、工作记忆和抑制技能对ToM表现的影响;特别关注ASD中的ToM。本文结合南非神经心理学实践和研究的临床经验,探讨了ToM能力成功评估的可行性建议。

Neurocognitive considerations when assessing Theory of Mind in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterised by poor social competence; and since Theory of Mind (ToM) is a building block for social-communicative skills and successful social integration, these skills are important to assess when preparing and monitoring educational and therapeutic plans. ToM is a complex skill requiring the ability to form mental concepts, to represent complex constructs verbally, to inhibit some mental states in favour of others, and to consider and compare multiple perspectives. It is critical to consider cognitive influences on the ability to develop and convey ToM skills to ensure that deficits in other cognitive domains do not falsely present as ToM deficits. This consideration is particularly vital in ASD populations with known difficulties not only in ToM, but also in intellectual functioning, language, and executive functioning. This article reviews the influence of intellectual ability, language, working memory, and inhibition skills on the presentation of ToM; with particular focus on ToM in ASD. We discuss practical suggestions based on clinical experience in neuropsychological practice and research in South Africa for the successful assessment of ToM ability.
