我们研究的参考选择（代词/零与名称/描述）的高功能的儿童和青少年自闭症和一个良好匹配的典型发展控制组的叙述过程中。选择恰当的指称表达的过程取决于两个认知功能领域：a）判断对话者的注意力和知识，以及B）使用记忆和注意机制来表征话语情境。我们预测了可能的群体差异，因为自闭症通常与a）心智化和B）记忆和注意力的缺陷有关，以及更普遍的语言使用语用方面的困难倾向。结果显示，一些自闭症的参与者显着不太可能产生代词或零在某些话语背景。然而，这只是程度上的差别。总体而言，我们分析的所有参与者都表现出对话语语境的精细敏感性。此外，所有参与者的指称选择都受到与语言产生的认知努力相关的因素的调制。
We examine the referential choices (pronouns/zeros vs. names/descriptions) made during a narrative by high-functioning children and adolescents with autism and a well-matched typically developing control group. The process of choosing appropriate referring expressions has been proposed to depend on two areas of cognitive functioning: a) judging the attention and knowledge of one’s interlocutor, and b) the use of memory and attention mechanisms to represent the discourse situation. We predicted possible group differences, since autism is often associated with deficits in a) mentalizing and b) memory and attention, as well as a more general tendency to have difficulty with the pragmatic aspects of language use. Results revealed that some of the participants with autism were significantly less likely to produce pronouns or zeros in some discourse contexts. However, the difference was only one of degree. Overall, all participants in our analysis exhibited fine-grained sensitivity to the discourse context. Furthermore, referential choices for all participants were modulated by factors related to the cognitive effort of language production.
