Résumé

Les altérations de la cognition sociale constituent un symptôme clé du trouble du spectre de l'autisme (TSA). Les personnes autistes éprouvent de grandes difficultés à comprendre les croyances et les désirs d'autres personnes. Ces dernières années, la littérature a commencé à examiner le lien entre les altérations de la cognition sociale et les capacités qui exigent l'utilisation de compétences spatiales et sociales, telles que la prise de perspective visuelle (VPT). Flavell (1977) a défini deux niveaux de prise de perspective : la VPT de niveau 1 est la capacité à comprendre que les autres personnes ont une ligne de visée différente de la nôtre, tandis que la VPT de niveau 2 est la compréhension selon laquelle deux personnes observant le même objet depuis des positions différentes dans l'espace peuvent voir des choses différentes. Jusqu'à présent, la littérature sur la question de savoir si l'un ou l'autre niveau de VPT est altéré ou préservé dans l'autisme est incohérente. Nous passons ici en revue les études qui ont examiné les niveaux 1 et 2 de VPT chez les personnes autistes, en nous concentrant sur leurs méthodes. Nous concluons cette revue par une évaluation des résultats relatifs à la VPT dans l'autisme et formulons des recommandations pour de futures recherches susceptibles de fournir un éclairage plus clair sur la question de savoir si la prise de perspective est réellement altérée dans l'autisme.

Impairments in social cognition are a key symptom of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). People with autism have great difficulty with understanding the beliefs and desires of other people. In recent years literature has begun to examine the link between impairments in social cognition and abilities which demand the use of spatial and social skills, such as visual perspective taking (VPT). Flavell (1977) defined two levels of perspective taking: VPT level 1 is the ability to understand that other people have a different line of sight to ourselves, whereas VPT level 2 is the understanding that two people viewing the same item from different points in space may see different things. So far, literature on whether either level of VPT is impaired or intact in autism is inconsistent. Here we review studies which have examined VPT levels 1 and 2 in people with autism with a focus on their methods. We conclude the review with an evaluation of the findings into VPT in autism and give recommendations for future research which may give a clearer insight into whether perspective taking is truly impaired in autism.
