| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated effects of the spatial complexity of configurations on visual short-term memory (VSTM) capacity for individuals from the general population differing on autism-spectrum quotient (AQ) scores. Considering behavioral data, we found that VSTM capacity for simple configurations was larger than for complex configurations in individuals reporting Low AQ, whereas for individuals reporting High AQ, there were no significant differences between these configurations. Considering physiological data, we found that similar to simple patterns, complex patterns were efficiently encoded in the High AQ.
Further, we examined pattern recognition properties in relation to Alexithymia traits and children with ADHD.
