Abstract in brief

  • This study investigates how executive functions, motivation, and emotion recognition differ in adolescents with high-functioning autism, especially considering whether they experienced early language delays.
  • The findings show that autistic teens with early language delays have broader impairments in executive skills, motivation, and emotion recognition compared to typically developing peers, while those without language delays mainly struggle with emotion recognition.
  • These results suggest that early language delay may influence specific cognitive and emotional challenges in autism, emphasizing the need to consider language development history when assessing and supporting individuals with ASD.]
