This study \ninvestigated learning and responsiveness to nonsocial, but motivational, \nstimuli in ASP. We examined choice behavior and galvanic skin conductance \nresponses (SCRs) during the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT; Bechara et al., 1994) in 15 adolescents and young adults with ASP and \n14 comparison subjects. We examined aspects of learning, attention to wins \nand losses, and response style with a formal cognitive model, the \nExpectancy\u2013Valence Learning model (Busemeyer &amp; Stout, 2002). The ASP group did not differ from the \ncomparison group in proportions of selections from advantageous decks. \nHowever, ASP participants showed a distinct pattern of selection \ncharacterized by frequent shifts between the four IGT decks, whereas \ncomparison participants developed clear deck preferences. SCR results \nshowed some evidence of reduced responsiveness in the ASP group during the \nIGT. Results from the cognitive model indicated that, in contrast to the \ncomparison group, the ASP group's selections were less consistent \nwith the motivational significance they assigned to decks. Findings are \ndiscussed in the context of the neurobiological substrates associated with \nIGT performance (<jats:italic>JINS<\/jats:italic>, 2006, <jats:italic>12<\/jats:italic>, 668\u2013676.)<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1355617706060802","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,9,8]],"date-time":"2006-09-08T22:45:40Z","timestamp":1157755540000},"page":"668-676","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":89,"title":["Motivational processes and autonomic responsivity in Asperger's \ndisorder: Evidence from the Iowa Gambling Task"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"SHANNON A.","family":"JOHNSON","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ELDAD","family":"YECHIAM","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ROBIN R.","family":"MURPHY","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"SARAH","family":"QUELLER","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"JULIE C.","family":"STOUT","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,9,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1355617706060802_ref040","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Sutton, S.K. , Burnette, C.P. , Mundy, P.C. , Meyer, J. , Vaughan, A. , Sanders, C. , et al .(2005).Resting cortical brain activity and social behavior in higherfunctioning children with autism.Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry,46,211\u2013222.","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-7610.2004.00341.x"},{"key":"S1355617706060802_ref022","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Frost, R.O. & Shows, D.L.
