Empatia, Autismo, Neuropsicológica, Cognição, Afeto, Áreas cerebraisResumo
Esta revisão analisa a aproximação conceitual e a mediação da empatia nos transtornos do espectro autista. A empatia é um construto que tem diversas aproximações e abordagens nas ciências cognitivas. Pode-se determinar que existem diversas concepções e empatia. Estudos mostram uma dicotomia no processamento da empatia em sujeitos com autismo, sugerindo um déficit de empatia com o funcionamento cognitivo, mas não no afetivo. No estudo destas áreas encontra-se uma tendência no uso de auto reportes, questionários e tarefas de teoria da mente. Por outro lado, as mediações cerebrais têm mostrado uma ativação não típica na no córtex pré-frontal direito, uma união temporoparietal, o córtex insular e o giro fusiforme.
