Atypical neural networks for social orienting in autism spectrum disorders
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are characterized by significant social impairments, including deficits in orienting attention following social cues. Behavioral studies investigating social orienting in ASD, however, have yielded mixed results, as the use of naturalistic paradigms typically reveals clear deficits whereas computerized laboratory experiments often report normative behavior. The p...
متن کاملVisual Orienting Among Persons with Autism Spectrum Disorders
INTRODUCTION Atypical attentional behaviour is emerging as a robust marker of ASD in children as young as 12 months in both retrospective (1, 2) and prospective longitudinal studies (3). Young children as well as high-functioning adults with ASD exhibit unusual looking behaviour not only to people but to objects as well (4), suggesting atypical looking behaviour is not strictly a social problem...
متن کاملNeural Mechanisms Underlying Conscious and Unconscious Gaze-Triggered Attentional Orienting in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Impaired joint attention represents the core clinical feature of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Behavioral studies have suggested that gaze-triggered attentional orienting is intact in response to supraliminally presented eyes but impaired in response to subliminally presented eyes in individuals with ASD. However, the neural mechanisms underlying conscious and unconscious gaze-triggered atten...
متن کاملEconomic burden of childhood autism spectrum disorders.
OBJECTIVE To estimate the associations between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnoses and service use, caregiver time, and cost outcomes. METHODS We used national data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey linked to the National Health Interview Survey and a study-specific survey to estimate the annual utilization and costs for health care, school, ASD-related therapy, family-coordinate...
متن کاملUnderstanding visual consciousness in autism spectrum disorders
The paper focuses on the question of what the (visual) perceptual differences are between individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and typically developing (TD) individuals. We argue against the view that autistic subjects have a deficiency in the most basic form of perceptual consciousness-namely, phenomenal consciousness. Instead, we maintain, the perceptual atypicality of individuals...
