这项研究评估了读心术，这是一种交互式系统情绪指南。因其能够有效帮助患有阿斯伯格综合症 (AS) 和高功能自闭症 (HFA) 的成年人识别面部和声音中的复杂情绪。实验 I 测试了一组被诊断患有 AS/HFA 的成年人 (n = 19)，他们在家使用该软件 10-15 周。参与者在三个不同的概括水平上接受了面部和声音识别测试。匹配的 AS/HFA 成人对照组 (it = 22) 在没有任何干预的情况下进行了评估。此外，还测试了第三组一般群体对照（it = 24）。实验 2 与一组患有 AS/HFA 的成年人重复实验 I 的设计，他们在家使用该软件，并每周与导师会面。他们与参加社交技能培训的 AS/HFA 成人对照组和一般人群对照组（所有三组均为 13）相匹配。在这两项实验中，干预组在近距离泛化任务上的进步显着高于对照组，但远距离泛化任务的进步并不明显。言语智商在实验2中具有显着效果。在相对较短的时间内使用读心术可以让用户学会识别各种复杂的情绪和心理状态。然而，需要额外的方法来增强泛化能力。
This study evaluated Mind Reading, an interactive systematic guide to emotions. for its effectiveness in reaching adults with Asperger syndrome (AS) and high-functioning autism (HFA) to recognize complex emotions in faces and voices. Experiment I tested a group of adults diagnosed with AS/HFA (n = 19) who used the software at home for 10-15 weeks. Participants were tested on recognition of faces and voices at three different levels of generalization. A matched control group of adults with AS/HFA (it = 22) were assessed without any intervention. In addition, a third group of general Population controls (it = 24) was tested. Experiment 2 repeated the design of Experiment I with a group of adults with AS/HFA who used the software at home and met in a group with a tutor on a weekly basis. They were matched to a control group of adults with AS/HFA attending social skills training and to a general population control group (it = 13 for all three groups). In both experiments the intervention group improved significantly more than the control group on close, but not distant, generalization tasks. Verbal IQ had significant effects in Experiment 2. Using Mind Reading for a relatively short period of time allows users to learn to recognize a variety of complex emotions and mental states. However, additional methods are required to enhance generalization.
