Here we investigated the characteristics of action representation in adolescents with ASD through motor imagery (MI) using a hand rotation and an object rotation task. Comparable with the typically-developing group, the individuals with ASD were able to spontaneously use kinesthetic MI to perform the hand rotation task, as manifested by the significant biomechanical effects. However, the ASD group performed significantly slower only in the hand rotation task, but not in the object rotation task. The findings suggest that the adolescents with ASD showed inefficient but functional kinesthetic MI, implicating that their action representation might be preserved. | 關聯: | JOURNAL OF AUTISM AND DEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS, 48(3), 784-795 | 資料類型: | article | DOI: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10803-017-3367-y |
