Outline of Research at the Start

何か課題に取り組む時に,他者が傍にいることで成績が良くなる現象を社会的促進,反対に成績が悪くなることを社会的抑制と呼ぶ。本研究では特に就学前の自閉スペクトラム症(ASD)児を対象として,この現象がどのような状況において生じるのか,またASD児では健常発達児と効果が異なるのかを検討する。またその際の脳神経の活動を,小児専用に開発された脳磁計(MEG:脳神経の活動に伴って生じる微小磁場を測定する装置)を用いて計測する。本研究によってASD児の認知的・神経的な特徴の解明を進め,さらに療育場面等におけるより効果的なサポートのための提言を行うことを目指す。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder characterized primarily by difficulties in forming social relationships with others and narrow interests and concerns, often focusing on specific objects or behaviors. This study focused on preschool-aged children with ASD or typical development (TD), examining whether there were differences in task performance and brain activity between situations where the child performed cognitive tasks with a familiar caregiver present and with an unfamiliar person present. The results suggested that there may be distinct effects depending on the type of person beside them, differing between children with ASD and those with typical development.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

近年,社会的な認知度の高まりや乳幼児健診時の診断が一般的になったことも併せて,何らかの支援が必要であると判断されるASD者の数は年々増加している。ASDは現在でも根本的な治療方法は見つかっていないが,特に早期診断および療育等による介入が有効であることが示されている。本研究の成果を応用し,他者の存在がASD児の認知的能力にどのような影響を及ぼすのかを個人の特性と併せて明らかにすることで,例えば取り組んでいる課題に応じて周囲の人間があえてその場を離れるなど,家庭や療育の場面での細やかな対応方法について,具体的かつ新たな提言を行うことが可能となると考えられる。
