The Effect of Concurrent Task Load on Stimulus Over-Selectivity

Auteurs: Phil Reed, Evelyn Gibson

Gepubliceerd in: Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders | Uitgave 5/2005

Abstract

Stimulus over-selectivity is a phenomenon displayed by individuals with autism, and has been implicated as a basis for many autistic-spectrum symptoms. In four experiments, non-autistic adult participants were required to learn a simple discrimination using picture cards, and then were tested for the emergence of stimulus over-selectivity, both with and without a concurrent task. Greater stimulus over-selectivity was noted when participants completed the concurrent task. The results are discussed in relation to the implications for the development of a model of memory deficits in autism.
