“…Thus, this set of social cognitive impairments presented at early ages by autistic children is possibly related to the atypical development of EF (such as planning, inhibition, and cognitive flexibility), affecting the initiative and selfregulatory skills, essential in the more complex forms of social interaction (Martins-Junior, Sanvicente-Vieira, Grassi-Oliveira, & Brietzke, 2011).…”

The literature has shown a strong relationship between executive dysfunction and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), although there is no consensus on which subprocesses of executive functioning are impaired and/or preserved in this condition. This study aimed to investigate executive function and working memory in children and adolescents with ASD (n= 11) compared to children and adolescents with typical development (n= 19) matched by age, formal education, and nonverbal IQ. The tests used were: Raven’s Colored Progressive Matrices, Stroop Test, Trail Making Test, Rey’s Complex Figure Test, Digit span, Pseudowords span, Working memory, Verbal fluency (orthographic and semantic) and Go/no go. The results demonstrate impairment of executive function in the clinical group, especially in planning, flexibility, inhibition, and also visuospatial working memory.

“…Actualmente se han realizado múltiples estudios, revisiones sistemáticas y metaanálisis que han concluido y hallado relación entre la ToM y algunas patologías (Martins-Junior, Sanvicente-Vieira, Grassi-Oliveira & Brietzke, 2011). Sin embargo, estas enfermedades no son referidas únicamente a aspectos psicopatológicos, sino que además se han encontrado importantes hallazgos que relacionan la ToM con algunas otras condiciones patológicas de naturaleza fisiológica (Adenzato, Cavallo, & Enrici, 2010;Bora, Velakoulis, & Walterfang, 2016;Bora, Walterfang & Velakoulis, 2015).…”

El propósito del presente artículo es presentar una revisión bibliométrica sobre las investigaciones que trabajan el concepto de Teoría de la Mente (ToM) y de Personalidad. Se seleccionaron 30 estudios de las bases de datos Scopus, Science Direct, EBSCO, PubMed, Scielo y Springer, de los cuales se obtuvieron 75 artículos científicos experimentales publicados entre los años 2012 y 2016. Se halló una relación de la ToM con trastornos de la personalidad, tales como el trastorno límite, narcisista y antisocial. También se encontró relación con rasgos específicos, como baja empatía, el tipo de apego y los altos niveles de insensibilidad emocional. Se concluye que, aunque se ha avanzado en el conocimiento de la relación entre la ToM y la personalidad, las investigaciones no son lo suficientemente extensas para aclarar cómo opera esta interacción con la totalidad de las dimensiones y los rasgos de personalidad en sujetos con y sin psicopatología.

“…The scientific literature indicates that emotion recognition between 6 and 11 years of age predicts well-being and social relationships. Impaired emotional processing is related to increased vulnerability to developing mental disorders (Martins-Junior et al, 2011 ; Frith and Frith, 2012 ; Romani-Sponchiado et al, 2015 ). However, many of these disorders can occur before this point.…”

The Child Emotion Facial Expression Set: A Database for Emotion Recognition in Children

et al. 2021

Background: This study developed a photo and video database of 4-to-6-year-olds expressing the seven induced and posed universal emotions and a neutral expression. Children participated in photo and video sessions designed to elicit the emotions, and the resulting images were further assessed by independent judges in two rounds.Methods: In the first round, two independent judges (1 and 2), experts in the Facial Action Coding System, firstly analysed 3,668 emotions facial expressions stimuli from 132 children. Both judges reached 100% agreement regarding 1,985 stimuli (124 children), which were then selected for a second round of analysis between judges 3 and 4.Results: The result was 1,985 stimuli (51% of the photographs) were produced from 124 participants (55% girls). A Kappa index of 0.70 and an accuracy of 73% between experts were observed. Lower accuracy was found for emotional expression by 4-year-olds than 6-year-olds. Happiness, disgust and contempt had the highest agreement. After a sub-analysis evaluation of all four judges, 100% agreement was reached for 1,381 stimuli which compound the ChildEFES database with 124 participants (59% girls) and 51% induced photographs. The number of stimuli of each emotion were: 87 for neutrality, 363 for happiness, 170 for disgust, 104 for surprise, 152 for fear, 144 for sadness, 157 for anger 157, and 183 for contempt.Conclusions: The findings show that this photo and video database can facilitate research on the mechanisms involved in early childhood recognition of facial emotions in children, contributing to the understanding of facial emotion recognition deficits which characterise several neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders.
