“…These authors also established that working memory capacity significantly predicts the likelihood of producing competing-referents ambiguity in both groups, again suggesting that competing-referents ambiguity is associated with executive functioning. Therefore, the fact that this study and the studies of Kuijper et al (2015) and Stegenwallner-Schütz and Adani (2020) all found that this type of ambiguity was not particularly prevalent in autistic narratives calls into question whether executive functioning differences can explain increased referential ambiguity in autistic narratives.…”

“…However, these authors, like us, did not find more frequent uses of competing-referents ambiguity by autistic participants compared to NA participants. More recently, Stegenwallner-Schütz and Adani (2020) used a picture description task to probe for competing-referents ambiguity, specifically, and also found that autistic children were not more likely to produce competing-referents ambiguity than NA children. These authors also established that working memory capacity significantly predicts the likelihood of producing competing-referents ambiguity in both groups, again suggesting that competing-referents ambiguity is associated with executive functioning.…”

“…Autistic individuals have been shown to have difficulty using pronouns appropriately in the specific context, including first and second person pronouns, i.e. I, me, you , leading to cases of pronoun reversal (Naigles et al 2016 ; Overweg et al 2018 ), and using nonambiguous and adequately informative referential expressions (Novogrodsky and Edelson 2016 ; but see Stegenwallner-Schütz and Adani 2020 ). In null-subject languages such as Italian and Greek (Mazzaggio and Shield 2020 ; Terzi et al 2019 ), instead of using ambiguous pronouns, autistic children tend to avoid pronouns in favor of nouns or names.…”
