Researcher | Baron-Cohen et al |
Hypothesis | Autistic children have a specific deficit in understanding the thoughts of others, although not logical thinking in general. No ToM |
Sample | Autistic, Down's and normal children |
Method | Children had to arrange sequences of comic strip pictures in the right order, then explain the story. Stories depicted physical/mechanical events, behavioural events or mentalistic/belief stories |
Results | Autistic children perform worse on the mentalistic story but better on the other 2 |
Conclusion | Autistics perform worse than other groups on a test requiring them to understand the beliefs of characters, but not on the tests requiring understanding of physical/behavioural events |
Evaluation; strengths | use of matched control group increases the validity of the results |
Evaluation; Limitations | A picture sequencing task is artificial i.e. not a task that represents everyday behaviour |
