Intramodal and Cross-modal Matching of Emotional Expression in Young Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders

Published in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 2014

Summary

This study examined intramodal and cross-modal matching of emotional expression in young children with autism spectrum disorders. The study compared matching involving facial expressions and affective prosody to evaluate how children responded to emotional stimuli across modalities.

The study contributes to the Measuring and Autism Support lines by arranging emotion comprehension as observable matching responses across visual and auditory social stimuli. It also provides a basis for later work on facial expressions, affective prosody, and cross-modal social stimulus relations.

Research line

  • Measuring: assessment of emotion comprehension through matching tasks
  • Autism Support: evaluation of responses to emotional stimuli in young children with autism spectrum disorders
  • Facial Expressions and Affective Prosody: intramodal and cross-modal matching of social stimuli
