social cue that they believe they saw happening in the video was nonexistent. To see whether someone is able to correctly identify both types of cues, researchers use the Social Cue Recognition Test (SCRT). When the task is defined as being too abstract, this means that it contains abstract cues, which are cues that can be inferred from a social setting. This would consist of actions and situations that contain affect, goals, and rules. Thus, people with Schizophrenia have trouble making inferences about social situations and settings that deal with abstract aspects. On the other hand, schizophrenic people are better at identifying features that use concrete cues, which are cues that can be observed directly. The reason for this is because concrete clues are more apparent while abstract cues are more ambiguous. Autism Autistic individuals often have trouble reading social cues correctly. Misreading social cues can lead to a person acting out, which can then result in negative interactions and social disapproval. Therefore, social cues are believed to be an important aspect of inclusion and comfort in personal, interpersonal and social environments. The DSM states that Autism is a psychological disorder that has multiple symptoms that fall within three separate symptomatic categories. Impairment in social interactions such as: impairment in nonverbal behaviors that are used in normal social interactions: eye to eye gaze, facial expressions, posture, and gestures failure to make appropriate peer relationships lack of sharing interest, enjoyment, and/or achievements with others lack of emotional and social reciprocity Impairments in communication in one of the following: a delay in or lack of the development of spoken language impairment in ability to start and keep a conversation (only pertains to those who are sufficient in speech) language that is stereotyped and repetitive lack of diverse and spontaneous make-believe play (pretend), or imitative play that is appropriate for their age and developmental level Restricted repetitive and stereotyped models of behavior, interests, and activities in at least one of the following: fixation with one or more stereotyped and restricted models of interest that is atypical in either focus or intensity evidently inflexible devotion to particular, nonfunctional routines or rituals stereotyped and continuous motor mannerisms (e.g. hand or finger twisting, or whole body movements) constant fixation with parts of objects The main social cue impairments of those on the Autistic Spectrum include interpreting facial expressions, understanding body language, and deciphering gaze direction.
