Decision-making and anxiety The Fun and Games Study Jacqui Rodgers, Laura Gray & Sarah Wigham

What are we interested in? Understanding why children & young people with an ASD are vulnerable to anxiety Discovering whether thinking styles associated with ASD might contribute to the development and continuation of anxiety This may help us to develop more effective ways of providing support to young people with ASD and their families if anxiety is a problem

Our Methods: The fun and Games project The Iowa Gambling Task The Rule violation task Measuring responses to the tasks

Who has taken part? In the UK – 25 children with ASD aged between 8-16 & their parents – 25 children without ASD aged between 8-16 & their parents In the USA – 35 children with ASD aged between & their parents – 34 children without ASD aged between & their parents

Our Findings so far: Making decisions Comparing ‘rational’ and ‘emotional’ decisions

Implications and next steps Young people with ASD may find it more difficult to ‘listen’ to emotional cues to guide their decisions/behaviour This may have a big impact in social & emotional situations Next steps: Finish our analysis! Consider the clinical/educational implications
