Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was first to develop a scale that measures Broad Autism Phenotype (BAP) in Japanese (BAPQ-J). One hundred seventy nine parents of children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD) or typical development (TD) completed BAPQ-J and the results confirmed its reliability and validity. Secondly, we examined the relationship between autistic traits/BAP and social recognition in parents and children. As high function ASD children showed impairment in recognizing facial expression compared to TD children, part of this tendency was also seen in parents with ASD child especially who scored high on BAP subscale; rigidness.
