自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）和注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）都与执行控制缺陷和社会环境问题有关。本研究分析了抑制控制和心理理论（ToM）的变量，包括后者的发展方面，以区分障碍。在5-22岁的年龄范围内，对患有ASD （N = 86）、ADHD （N = 84）和两种疾病（N = 52）的参与者进行比较。结果显示，低龄儿童（ASD < ADHD）在抑制性控制（ADHD < ASD）和ToM表现方面存在差异，但大龄儿童之间无差异。我们讨论了ToM的常见缺陷在发育过程中是否存在差异。
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD) are both associated with deficits in executive control and with problems in social contexts. This study analyses the variables inhibitory control and theory of mind (ToM), including a developmental aspect in the case of the latter, to differentiate between the disorders. Participants with an ASD (N = 86), an ADHD (N = 84) and with both disorders (N = 52) in the age range of 5-22 years were compared. Results were differences in inhibitory control (ADHD < ASD) and in the ToM performance among younger (ASD < ADHD) but not among older children. We discuss whether common deficits in ToM differ in the developmental course.
