孤独症谱系障碍面孔情绪识别的研究进展

Advances in facial emotion recognition in autism spectrum disorder

面孔情绪识别(facial emotion recognition,FER)是社会认知和社会功能的重要组成部分。孤独症谱系障碍(autism spectrum disorder,ASD)患者普遍存在FER的加工异常,可能是其社交障碍及社会决策异常的原因之一。眼动追踪和功能性磁共振成像(functional magnetic resonance imaging,fMRI)为FER的神经心理机制研究提供了新思路。探讨ASD中FER的特点、相关脑机制及其临床干预策略,可为进一步通过FER干预改善ASD社交障碍提供理论依据。

Facial emotion recognition(FER)is an important part of social cognition and social functioning.Autism spectrum disorder(ASD)is characterized by social impairment,which may relate to problematic FER.Eye tracking and functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI)provide new ideas for the study of neuropsychological mechanisms of FER.This article reviews the studies on FER in ASD,including characteristics,brain mechanisms,and clinical intervention,which provides a theoretical basis for further improving ASD social disorder through FER intervention.
