最近提出的社会动机理论（Chevallier et al.，Trends in cognitive sciences 16（4）：231-239，2012）表明，自闭症谱系障碍（ASC）中的社交困难可能是由与其他人交往的动机差异引起的。在这里，我们比较了青少年（N = 31）和（N = 37）ASC的选择一部电影的范式，衡量社会寻求。结果表明，在ASC中，人们更喜欢看物体而不是微笑的面孔，这与低社会动机理论相一致。然而，典型的青少年没有表现出任何刺激偏好，提出了社会动机的发展变化的问题。年龄被发现在调节参与者的选择行为方面起着重要作用。我们详细讨论了这些发现的影响。本文的在线版本（doi：10.1007/s10803-016-2974-3）包含补充材料，可供授权用户使用。
The recently proposed Social Motivation theory (Chevallier et al., Trends in cognitive sciences 16(4):231–239, 2012) suggests that social difficulties in Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) might be caused by a difference in the motivation to engage with other people. Here we compared adolescents with (N = 31) and without (N = 37) ASC on the Choose-a-Movie paradigm that measures the social seeking. The results showed a preference for viewing objects over smiling faces in ASC, which is in line with the theory of low social motivation. However, typical adolescents did not show any stimuli preferences, raising questions about developmental changes in social motivation. Age was found to play a significant role in moderating the choice behaviour of the participants. We discuss the implications of these findings in detail.
