dc.description.abstract Much of the discussion around theory of mind (ToM) puts autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in the spotlight because of its many symptoms affecting social cognition and interaction. More specifically, simulation theory in those with ASD is a focus of many mind theorists. By presenting studies and a discussion of social and cognitive deficiencies pertaining to ASD, I attempt to draw a link between simulation theory and empathy where I claim that simulation theory is the cognitive process that shows its effects through what we call empathy. After presenting a literature review on ToM and ASD, I will move on to an explanation of the nature of empathy and how people with ASD have difficulties showing empathy in comparison to control groups, taking this as evidence for my claim for the relationship between simulation theory and empathy.
