- W8833105 abstract "Recent research indicates that individuals mith mental retardation have deficits in processing facial expressions of emotion, but has not investigated other aspects of emotional processing such as understanding of affective concepts. This study investigated whether adults with mental retardation have difficulty understanding emotion-descriptive concepts, and if so, whether err not that difficulty can be attributed to a general difficulty with abstract concepts. Another aim was to determine if aggressive and nonaggressive adults differ in their understanding of emotion-descriptive concepts. Seventy-three participants were administered the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised (Dunn & Dunn, 1981). Participants performed better on nonemotion than concepts, but there was no performance difference between abstract and nonabstract concepts. Aggressive participants did not have more difficulty with concepts than nonaggressive subjects. Findings support the emotion specificity hypothesis (Rojahn, Rabold, & Schneider, 1995b) and extend it to include difficulty with concepts which contain affective meaning. Implications for clinical assessment and intervention and suggestions for future research are discussed. There is growing evidence that people with coordination of sound and facial expression mental retardation have specific deficits in (Hobson, Ouston, & Lee, 1989b). No research processing affective cues independent of their on emotional processing in individuals with overall cognitive functioning, termed the mental retardation has explored their under emotion specificity hypothesis (Rojahn, Rastanding of affective concepts, bold, & Schneider, 1995b). Most of the reThe purpose of this study was to determine search to date has focused on the processing, if the understanding of emotion-descriptive discrimination, and labeling of facial expresconcepts is more limited than understanding sions (e.g., Adams & Markham, 1991; BrosGf emotion-unrelated concepts (e.g., objects, gole, Gioia, & Zingmond, 1986; Hobson, Ousevents, and relational terms) among people ton, & Lee, 1989a; Maurer & Newbrough, with mental retardation.
