Liu, Chunyan; Zhai, Huajie; Su, Shuhua; Song, Sutao; Chen, Gongxiang; Jiang, Yi – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Previous studies have found reduced leftward bias of facial processing in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). However, it is not clear whether they manifest a leftward bias in general visual processing. To shed light on this issue, the current study used the manual line bisection task to assess children 5 to 15 years of age with ASD…

Investigating How Explicit Contextual Cues Affect Predictive Sensorimotor Control in Autistic Adults
Arthur, Tom; Brosnan, Mark; Harris, David; Buckingham, Gavin; Wilson, Mark; Williams, Genevieve; Vine, Sam – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Research suggests that sensorimotor difficulties in autism could be reduced by providing individuals with explicit contextual information. To test this, we examined autistic visuomotor control during a virtual racquetball task, in which participants hit normal and unexpectedly-bouncy balls using a handheld controller. The probability of facing…

Brodeur, Darlene A.; Stewart, Jillian; Dawkins, Tamara; Burack, Jacob A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
The findings are evidence that persons with ASD benefit more than typically developing (TD) persons from spatial framing cues in focusing their attention on a visual target. Participants were administered a forced-choice task to assess visual filtering. A target stimulus was presented on a screen and flanker stimuli were presented simultaneously…

Ronconi, Luca; Devita, Maria; Molteni, Massimo; Gori, Simone; Facoetti, Andrea – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
Previous studies independently demonstrated impairments in rapid orienting/disengagement and zooming-out of spatial attention in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). These attentional mechanisms, however, are not completely independent. Aiming at a more complete picture of spatial attention deficits in ASD, we examined the relationship between…

The Integration of Occlusion and Disparity Information for Judging Depth in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Smith, Danielle; Ropar, Danielle; Allen, Harriet A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2017
In autism spectrum disorder (ASD), atypical integration of visual depth cues may be due to flattened perceptual priors or selective fusion. The current study attempts to disentangle these explanations by psychophysically assessing within-modality integration of ordinal (occlusion) and metric (disparity) depth cues while accounting for sensitivity…

Murphy, Eric R.; Norr, Megan; Strang, John F.; Kenworthy, Lauren; Gaillard, William D.; Vaidya, Chandan J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2017
We examined spontaneous attention orienting to visual salience in stimuli without social significance using a modified Dot-Probe task during functional magnetic resonance imaging in high-functioning preadolescent children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and age- and IQ-matched control children. While the magnitude of attentional bias (faster…

Antezana, Ligia; Mosner, Maya G.; Troiani, Vanessa; Yerys, Benjamin E. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2016
In typical development there is a bias to orient visual attention to social information. Children with ASD do not reliably demonstrate this bias, and the role of attention orienting has not been well studied. We examined attention orienting via the inhibition of return (IOR) mechanism in a spatial cueing task using social-emotional cues; we…

Dratsch, Thomas; Schwartz, Caroline; Yanev, Kliment; Schilbach, Leonhard; Vogeley, Kai; Bente, Gary – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
We investigated the influence of control over a social stimulus on the ability to detect direct gaze in high-functioning autism (HFA). In a pilot study, 19 participants with and 19 without HFA were compared on a gaze detection and a gaze setting task. Participants with HFA were less accurate in detecting direct gaze in the detection task, but did…

Dowd, Ariane M.; McGinley, Jennifer L.; Taffe, John R.; Rinehart, Nicole J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2012
This paper examines the upper-limb movement kinematics of young children (3-7 years) with high-functioning autism using a point-to-point movement paradigm. Consistent with prior findings in older children, a difference in movement preparation was found in the autism group (n = 11) relative to typically developing children. In contrast to typically…

Rombough, Adrienne; Iarocci, Grace – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
Potential relations between gaze cueing, social use of gaze, and ability to follow line of sight were examined in children with autism and typically developing peers. Children with autism (mean age = 10 years) demonstrated intact gaze cueing. However, they preferred to follow arrows instead of eyes to infer mental state, and showed decreased…

Campbell, Daniel J.; Shic, Frederick; Macari, Suzanne; Chawarska, Katarzyna – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2014
Variability in attention towards direct gaze and child-directed speech may contribute to heterogeneity of clinical presentation in toddlers with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). To evaluate this hypothesis, we clustered sixty-five 20-month-old toddlers with ASD based on their visual responses to dyadic cues for engagement, identifying three…

Sheth, Bhavin R.; Liu, James; Olagbaju, Olayemi; Varghese, Larry; Mansour, Rosleen; Reddoch, Stacy; Pearson, Deborah A.; Loveland, Katherine A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2011
We probed differences in the ability to detect and interpret social cues in adults and in children and young adolescents with and without autism spectrum disorders (ASD) by investigating the effect of various social and non-social contexts on the visual exploration of pictures of natural scenes. Children and adolescents relied more on social…

Sheppard, Elizabeth; Ropar, Danielle; Mitchell, Peter – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2009
Previous research suggests individuals with autism may be less influenced by a three-dimensional interpretation when copying line drawings (Sheppard et al. "J Autism Dev Disord" 37:1913-1924, 2007). The current research aimed to determine whether this reduced dimensionality effect extends to drawings of an actual object. Twenty-four children and…

Walter, Elizabeth; Dassonville, Paul; Bochsler, Tiana M. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2009
Although several accounts of autism have predicted that the disorder should be associated with a decreased susceptibility to visual illusions, previous experimental results have been mixed. This study examined whether a link between autism and illusion susceptibility can be more convincingly demonstrated by assessing the relationships between…

Santos, Andreia; Rosset, Delphine; Deruelle, Christine – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2009
Increased motivation towards social stimuli in Williams syndrome (WS) led us to hypothesize that a face's human status would have greater impact than face's orientation on WS' face processing abilities. Twenty-nine individuals with WS were asked to categorize facial emotion expressions in real, human cartoon and non-human cartoon faces presented…
