Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Feldman, Jacob I.; Conrad, Julie G.; Kuang, Wayne; Tu, Alexander; Liu, Yupeng; Simon, David M.; Wallace, Mark T.; Woynaroski, Tiffany G. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Children with autism show alterations in multisensory integration that have been theoretically and empirically linked with the core and related features of autism. It is unclear, however, to what extent multisensory integration maps onto features of autism within children with and without autism. This study, thus, evaluates relations between…

Feldman, Jacob I.; Dunham, Kacie; DiCarlo, Gabriella E.; Cassidy, Margaret; Liu, Yupeng; Suzman, Evan; Williams, Zachary J.; Pulliam, Grace; Kaiser, Sophia; Wallace, Mark T.; Woynaroski, Tiffany G. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Differences in audiovisual integration are commonly observed in autism. Temporal binding windows (TBWs) of audiovisual speech can be trained (i.e., narrowed) in non-autistic adults; this study evaluated a computer-based perceptual training in autistic youth and assessed whether treatment outcomes varied according to individual characteristics.…

Dunham, Kacie; Feldman, Jacob I.; Liu, Yupeng; Cassidy, Margaret; Conrad, Julie G.; Santapuram, Pooja; Suzman, Evan; Tu, Alexander; Butera, Iliza; Simon, David M.; Broderick, Neill; Wallace, Mark T.; Lewkowicz, David; Woynaroski, Tiffany G. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) display differences in multisensory function as quantified by several different measures. This study estimated the stability of variables derived from commonly used measures of multisensory function in school-aged children with ASD. Participants completed: a simultaneity judgment task for audiovisual…

Stevenson, Ryan A.; Siemann, Justin K.; Woynaroski, Tiffany G.; Schneider, Brittany C.; Eberly, Haley E.; Camarata, Stephen M.; Wallace, Mark T. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2014
Atypical communicative abilities are a core marker of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). A number of studies have shown that, in addition to auditory comprehension differences, individuals with autism frequently show atypical responses to audiovisual speech, suggesting a multisensory contribution to these communicative differences from their…

Stevenson, Ryan A.; Siemann, Justin K.; Woynaroski, Tiffany G.; Schneider, Brittany C.; Eberly, Haley E.; Camarata, Stephen M.; Wallace, Mark T. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2014
Individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) exhibit alterations in sensory processing, including changes in the integration of information across the different sensory modalities. In the current study, we used the sound-induced flash illusion to assess multisensory integration in children with ASD and typically-developing (TD) controls.…

Individual Differences in the Multisensory Temporal Binding Window Predict Susceptibility to Audiovisual Illusions
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Stevenson, Ryan A.; Zemtsov, Raquel K.; Wallace, Mark T. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Human multisensory systems are known to bind inputs from the different sensory modalities into a unified percept, a process that leads to measurable behavioral benefits. This integrative process can be observed through multisensory illusions, including the McGurk effect and the sound-induced flash illusion, both of which demonstrate the ability of…
