Affective and internal state language in high-functioning autism
The present chapter investigates differences between children with high
functioning autism (HFA) and children with typical development (TD) in the
ability to verbalize internal states. First, we provide an overview of research
on emotion recognition and theory of mind in HFA. We then report a study
comparing internal state language (ISL) in children with HFA and TD. ISL was
assessed via two word fluency tasks and via descriptions of video sequences
(“animated shapes”-task). Findings suggest that the use of ISL in HFA is similar
to that of TD peers. Participants with HFA were able to generate, associate und
apply words for internal states. Apparently, children with HFA exhibit adequate
linguistic devices to express emotions and other internal states, at least in
experimental settings.
