Oblique Orientation Discrimination Thresholds Are Superior in Those with a High Level of Autistic Traits / Abigail DICKINSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-11 (November 2014)
[article]
Titre : Oblique Orientation Discrimination Thresholds Are Superior in Those with a High Level of Autistic Traits Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Abigail DICKINSON, Auteur ; Myles JONES, Auteur ; Elizabeth MILNE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2844-2850 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic traits Orientation discrimination Visual perception Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Enhanced low-level perception, although present in individuals with autism, is not seen in individuals with high, but non-clinical, levels of autistic traits (Brock et al.in Percept Lond 40(6):739. doi:10.1068/p6953, 2011). This is surprising, as many of the higher-level visual differences found in autism have been shown to correlate with autistic traits in non-clinical samples. Here we measure vertical–oblique and, more difficult, oblique–oblique orientation discrimination thresholds in a non-clinical sample. As predicted, oblique–oblique thresholds provided a more sensitive test of orientation discrimination, and were negatively related to autistic traits (N = 94, r = ?.356, p .0001). We conclude that individual differences in orientation discrimination and autistic traits are related, and suggest that both of these factors could be mediated by increased levels of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA.
