Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and conduct disorder (CD) are differentially related to theory of mind (ToM) and facial emotion recognition (FER). The current study assessed the impact of co-occurring CD symptoms on ToM and FER, in ASD. Results indicate a negative relationship between CD symptoms and FER but not ToM.
