Autism-Specific Covariation in Perceptual Performances: “g” or “p” Factor?
BACKGROUND Autistic perception is characterized by atypical and sometimes exceptional performance in several low- (e.g., discrimination) and mid-level (e.g., pattern matching) tasks in both visual and auditory domains. A factor that specifically affects perceptive abilities in autistic individuals should manifest as an autism-specific association between perceptual tasks. The first purpose of t...
متن کاملCurvature Covariation as a Factor in Perceptual Salience
The salience of a contour depends upon several factors, including continuity, closure and curvature consistency. We analyze the statistics of curvature variation using a single image from Shimon Ullman’s [1] original work on contour salience. We develop a measure based on the arc length of a contour segment over which curvature variation remains within a constrained range. Locally, all contours...
متن کاملPerceptual similarity in autism.
People with autism have consistently been found to outperform controls on visuo-spatial tasks such as block design, embedded figures, and visual search tasks. Plaisted, O'Riordan, and others (Bonnel et al., 2003; O'Riordan & Plaisted, 2001; O'Riordan, Plaisted, Driver, & Baron-Cohen, 2001; Plaisted, O'Riordan, & Baron-Cohen, 1998a, 1998b) have suggested that these findings might be explained in...
متن کاملP-217: The vascular Endothelial Growth factor VEGF+405 G/G Genotype May Influence Embryo Implantation in Assisted Reproductive Techniques
Background: Repeated implantation failure (RIF) is the main problem after using assisted reproductive techniques (ART). The main causes of RIF as a multifactorial problem including decrease in endometrial receptivity, defects of embryo or combinational. Successful embryo implantation depends on trophoblast proliferation, migration and invasion to the endometrium, all of which are associated wit...
متن کاملEnhanced perceptual processing of speech in autism.
Theories of autism have proposed that a bias towards low-level perceptual information, or a featural/surface-biased information-processing style, may compromise higher-level language processing in such individuals. Two experiments, utilizing linguistic stimuli with competing low-level/perceptual and high-level/semantic information, tested processing biases in children with autism and matched co...
