abstract = {Previous research has demonstrated irrational asymmetry in
belief updating: people tend to take into account good news
and neglect bad news. Contradicting formal learning
principles, belief updates were on average larger after
better-than-expected information than after
worse-than-expected information. In the present study,
typically developing subjects demonstrated this optimism
bias in self-referential judgments. In contrast, adults with
high-functioning autism spectrum disorder (ASD) were
significantly less biased when updating self-referential
beliefs (each group n = 21, matched for age, gender and
IQ). These findings indicate a weaker influence of
self-enhancing motives on prospective judgments in ASD.
Reduced susceptibility to emotional and motivational biases
in reasoning in ASD could elucidate impairments of social
cognition, but may also confer important cognitive
benefits.},
