Aperçu: G.M.
L'influence des pairs a un impact profond sur la prise de décision chez les adolescents au développement typique. Dans
cette étude, nous avons examiné dans quelle mesure les adolescents
(11-17 ans, N = 144) avec et sans diagnostic d'autisme (TSA) ont été influencés par
les commentaires des pairs sur le comportement prosocial et quels
facteurs étaient liés aux différences individuelles dans la sensibilité
des commentaires par les pairs .
Les adolescents avec et sans TSa étaient sensibles aux commentaires des pairs sur le comportement prosocial. Plus de traits d'autisme et d'intérêt social ont été associés à une
moindre sensibilité aux commentaires antisociaux, ce qui suggère que les
commentaires des pairs créent des possibilités d'ajustement social chez les adolescents avec ou sans TSA.

Abstract
Peer
influence has a profound impact on decision-making in typically
developing adolescents. In this study, we examined to what extent
adolescent males (age 11-17 years; N = 144) with and without autism
(ASD) were influenced by peer feedback on prosocial behavior, and which
factors were related to individual differences in peer feedback
sensitivity. In a public goods game, participants made decisions about
the allocation of tokens between themselves and their group-in absence
or presence of peer feedback. Adolescents with and without ASD were
sensitive to peer feedback on prosocial behavior. More autism traits and
social interest were associated with less sensitivity to antisocial
feedback, suggesting that peer feedback creates opportunities for social
adjustment in those with and without ASD.
