神经典型个体的认知在多大程度上通过言语介导是认知神经心理学以及哲学和心理学争论的主题。研究发育/神经心理障碍中的“言语思维”为理论建设和临床实践提供了宝贵的机会。在本文中，我们对自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 患者中的此类研究进行了全面、批判性的回顾。自闭症谱系障碍涉及严重的社交沟通缺陷和认知/行为灵活性的限制。该领域的普遍观点是，自闭症谱系障碍中的认知和行为都不是通过言语介导的，这有助于诊断特征。然而，我们的综述表明，相反，迄今为止的大多数研究实际上发现，自闭症谱系障碍患者的认知任务表现要么是a）以典型方式通过言语介导，要么b）不是通过言语介导，但对整体任务表现没有明显的影响。但总的来说，这些研究存在方法学局限性，因此现阶段不可能得出明确的结论。审查的目的是评估现有的实证结果，并帮助制定未来研究的方向，以解决该领域的许多突出问题。
The extent to which cognition is verbally mediated in neurotypical individuals is the subject of debate in cognitive neuropsychology, as well as philosophy and psychology. Studying “verbal thinking” in developmental/neuropsychological disorders provides a valuable opportunity to inform theory building, as well as clinical practice. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive, critical review of such studies among individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). ASD involves severe social-communication deficits and limitations in cognitive/behavioural flexibility. The prevailing view in the field is that neither cognition nor behaviour is mediated verbally in ASD, and that this contributes to diagnostic features. However, our review suggests that, on the contrary, most studies to date actually find that among people with ASD cognitive task performance is either a) mediated verbally in a typical fashion, or b) not mediated verbally, but at no obvious cost to overall task performance. Overall though, these studies have methodological limitations and thus clear-cut conclusions are not possible at this stage. The aim of the review is to take stock of existing empirical findings, as well as to help develop the directions for future research that will resolve the many outstanding issues in this field.
