TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Inhibitory control in male and female adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) JO - Developmental neuropsychology A1 - Cissne, Mackenzie N.

SP - 369 EP - 383 VL - 47 IS - 8 N2 - The present study examined potential sex- and age-related differences in inhibitory control in adolescents with and without ASD. A computerized flanker visual filtering task and a go/no-go task were used to assess the ability to resist interference from visual distractors (RIVD) and prepotent response inhibition, respectively. Overall, the ASD and non-ASD groups performed comparably on both tasks and no sex-related differences or interactions (group-by-sex) were apparent. Consistent with past research, however, we did observe a significant age-related improvement in RIVD performance among the ASD group (but not the non-ASD group).
