Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairments in social communication and interaction, as well as restrictive or repetitive behaviors and interests. Some individuals with autism demonstrate deficits in face memory and recognition, which may contribute to overall social impairments. Increasing evidence also suggests that ASD is associated with abnormal sensory processing, including within the olfaction pathway, although results vary as to which components of olfaction, including odor identification, might be affected. Both odor identification and face recognition have been associated with activity in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), a brain region possibly implicated in ASD. The current study aims to measure odor identification and face memory performance in children with ASD compared to children who are typically developing (TD) and children with sensory processing difficulties (SPD), and assess whether there is a relationship between performance on face memory and odor identification tasks. Odor identification will be measured using University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT), a 40 item “scratch n’ sniff” activity, and face recognition will be assessed using the Wechsler Memory Scale III (WMS III); children will complete both the Faces I and Faces II subtests, which assess immediate recognition of faces and delayed recognition of faces respectively. Data collection for this study is ongoing; final analyses will consist of a Student’s t-test to assess for group differences on the odor identification and face recognition tasks, and Pearson’s correlation analyses to detect any significant associations between these tasks, using a significance threshold of α=.05. We hypothesize that children with ASD will show reduced performance on both the odor identification task and face recognition tasks compared to the TD and SPD groups, and that performance on the UPSIT will be strongly correlated to WMS III scores, reflecting the shared underlying role of the OFC.
