Individual differences in autistic traits predict the perception of direct gaze for males, but not for females / Daisuke MATSUYOSHI in Molecular Autism, (February 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inMolecular Autism > (February 2014) Titre : Individual differences in autistic traits predict the perception of direct gaze for males, but not for females Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Daisuke MATSUYOSHI, Auteur ; Kana KURAGUCHI, Auteur ; Yumiko TANAKA, Auteur ; Seina UCHIDA, Auteur ; Hiroshi ASHIDA, Auteur ; Katsumi WATANABE, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Despite the emphasis of autism spectrum disorders as a continuum of atypical social behaviors and the sexual heterogeneity of phenotypic manifestations, whether gaze processing constitutes an autistic endophenotype in both sexes remains unclear. Using the Autism-Spectrum Quotient and a psychophysical approach in a normal population (N=128), here we demonstrated that individual differences in autistic traits predicted direct-gaze perception for males, but not for females. Our findings suggest that direct-gaze perception may not constitute an autistic endophenotype in both sexes, and highlight the importance of sex differences when considering relationships between autistic traits and behaviors.
