Autistic children?s visual sensitivity to face movement / Qiandong WANG in Development and Psychopathology, 36-4 (October 2024)

Here we focused on the basic movement of the eyes or mouth in guiding attention. The stimuli face blinked continuously or moved the mouth silently. In a large sample (145 autistic and 132 non-autistic participants) ranging from 3 to 17 years old, we assessed whether autistic participants showed reduced visual attention to basic movement of the eyes or mouth using a free-viewing eye-tracking task. We found that, like non-autistic participants, autistic participants increased their eye-looking time when viewing the blinking face and increased mouth-looking time when viewing the mouth-moving face. Furthermore, these effects were stable across ages, suggesting the presence of a developmentally stable attentional capture by basic face movements in both groups. We also found that autistic participants looked less at basic face movement than non-autistic participants. Our results suggest that autistic children and adolescents could modulate their visual attention to the basic face movements, but their modulation effect is weaker than non-autistic participants. These results further our understanding of the mechanism underlying visual attention-to-face movement in autistic people.

Experiences of Performing Daily Activities in Middle-Aged and Older Autistic Adults: A Qualitative Study / Ye In HWANG in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-5 (May 2023)

We conducted interviews with fifteen adults (mean age=60.1, SD=7.4, range=50-73) from Australia with no intellectual disability. Analysis included both deductive and inductive steps, to categorise responses using the Occupational Performance Model Australia and identify themes across participants' experiences. Strengths and challenges were unique to the individual, as were the methods they had developed to manage tasks. Challenges occurred mostly at the interaction between aspects of the environment (sensory, cognitive, social and cultural) and personal factors such as health conditions and sensory sensitivities. Enhanced person-environment fit is needed, as is a shift in wider sociocultural attitudes to enable comfort and autonomy in later life.

Joint intention understanding in children with autism spectrum disorder / Wenwen HOU in Autism Research, 16-9 (September 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 16-9 (September 2023) . - p.1707-1718 Titre : Joint intention understanding in children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Wenwen HOU, Auteur ; Xue LI, Auteur ; Yunmei YANG, Auteur ; Jing LI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1707-1718 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract This study examined the ability of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to generate joint intention-based action prediction in a joint action task. Children were presented with a series of videos in which two actors either played with blocks based on joint intention (social condition) or played with blocks independently (nonsocial condition). In the familiarization stage, two actors demonstrated how they played with blocks three times. In the test stage, one actor left the scene, and another actor grasped a block and asked where she should place it. Children's gaze behavior was assessed by an eye tracker. After watching videos, children were asked to answer two questions: an action prediction question and an intention understanding question. The results showed that in the implicit eye movement task, children with ASD and typically developing (TD) children exhibited location-based anticipatory gaze under both conditions. However, in terms of explicit behavioral responses, TD children showed higher accuracy in response to action prediction questions and intention understanding questions than children with ASD in the social condition, while no significant group difference was found in the nonsocial condition. These results indicate that children with ASD have difficulty understanding joint intention and that their action prediction is primarily driven by bottom-up sensory inputs.

Orienting to and away from the eyes in infants at high likelihood for autism when scanning faces / Qiandong WANG ; Ying HAN ; Yixiao HU ; Xue LI ; Jing LIU ; Hui FANG ; Tianbi LI ; Yanmei CHANG ; Li YI in Autism Research, 18-1 (January 2025)

Infants at HL for autism and typically developing (TD) infants aged within 24 months were tested. In the experiment, participants' gaze was initially guided to the eye or mouth region immediately before the onset of the face. Latency to orient away from the guided regions, latency to orient to the eyes, and the location of the secondary fixation following the onset of the face were measured. The results showed that: (1) The HL infants looked less at eyes than TD infants; (2) Compared with TD infants, HL infants oriented towards eyes more slowly after being guided to the mouth; (3) After being guided to the eyes, HL infants' secondary fixation fell less in the eye region, and their latency to orient away from the eyes was also tended to be shorter. These results suggest that reduced eye-looking time was presented in HL infants, which was further explained by both eye avoidance and indifference to the eyes. Our study contributes theoretically to understanding the atypical face scanning pattern in autistic people and its related underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, our study provides important insights into the development of early screening tools and intervention protocols for autistic people.

Peer rejection as a mediator between socio-emotional function and internalizing symptoms in autistic adolescents / Xing SU in Autism, 30-7 (July 2026)

To examine whether peer rejection statistically links socio-emotional function and internalizing symptoms in autistic adolescents, we measured their socio-emotional function (social skill, alexithymia, empathy), peer rejection, and internalizing symptoms. Autistic adolescents (N = 71), aged between 10 and 16 years (M = 12.73 years), completed questionnaires measuring peer rejection, socio-emotional function (alexithymia, empathy), and internalizing symptoms (depression, anxiety, social anxiety), and their parents completed the Autism-Spectrum Quotient questionnaire measuring adolescents’ social skills. Our results revealed that peer rejection was associated with internalizing symptoms, and peer rejection mediates the relationships between socio-emotional function (social skill, alexithymia, empathy) and internalizing symptoms. These findings underscore the importance of relational factors in the mental health of autistic adolescents and highlight the importance of addressing peer rejection through inclusive practices and social acceptance initiatives.Lay abstract Teenagers often find peer rejection distressing. It is also linked to mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. For autistic adolescents, experiencing peer rejection is even more common, but its associations with mental health are less understood. This study aimed to find out if peer rejection is related to anxiety and depression in autistic adolescents. We also wanted to see how social skills, emotional awareness (alexithymia), and empathy relate to peer rejection, and whether these associations extend to emotional distress (depression, anxiety, social anxiety). We surveyed autistic adolescents aged 10 to 16 about their social experiences, socio-emotional function, and emotional distress. Their parents provided social-skill information. Autistic adolescents who felt more rejected by their peers had higher levels of emotional distress. Moreover, teens who struggled more with social skills and emotional functions tended to feel more rejected by peers and to experience higher levels of emotional distress. Our findings suggest that relationships play a crucial role in the mental health of autistic adolescents. While building individual social and emotional skills is important, fostering supportive peer environments may also play a key role in promoting their well-being.
