Atypical sleep architecture and the autism phenotype.
A growing body of evidence indicates that people with autism frequently experience sleep disorders and exhibit atypical sleep architecture. In order to establish whether sleep disorders truly belong to the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) phenotype, we conducted a subjective and objective study of sleep in a group of high-functioning adults with ASD but without sleep complaints, psychiatric disor...

متن کاملAtypical phonemic discrimination but not audiovisual speech integration in children with autism and the broader autism phenotype
When a speaker talks, the consequences of this can be heard (audio) and seen (visual). We use a novel visual phonemic restoration task to assess behavioral discrimination and neural signatures (ERP) of audiovisual processing in typically developing children with a range of social and communicative skill and in children with autism. In an auditory oddball design we presented two types of stimuli...
متن کاملThe Neuropsychological Profile of Autism and The Broad Autism Phenotype
Context—There now exist multiple reports of a constellation of language, personality, and socialbehavioral features present among relatives that mirror the symptom domains of autism, but much milder in expression. Studies of this ‘broad autism phenotype’ (BAP) may provide a potentially important, complementary approach for detecting the genes causing autism and defining associated neural circui...

We examined whether reduced perceptual specialization underlies atypical perception in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) testing classifications of stimuli that differ either along integral dimensions (prototypical integral dimensions of value and chroma), or along separable dimensions (prototypical separable dimensions of value and size). Current models of the perception of individuals with an AS...
