Abstract
This study aimed to characterize the emotional features in Asian autistic adults without intellectual disability (n=253) in comparison to non-autistic comparisons (n=56) and schizophrenia (n=56) by the Schutte's Emotion Intelligence Scale (SEIS). Among the autistic adults, 226 obtained results of both self-reported and mother-reported SEIS; 64 had repeated the SEIS within one month. We found low agreement between self-report and mother-report, particularly in autistic males. Overall, autistic adults showed difficulties in emotion perception and management that were differentiated from schizophrenia and were correlated with autistic features. Autistic adults may need more support and services in emotion perception and management.
