Atypical Pattern of Frontal EEG Asymmetry for Direct Gaze in Young Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Jenni LAUTTIA in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 49-9 (September 2019)

We found that, in TD children, direct gaze elicited greater approach-related frontal EEG activity than did downcast gaze. This pattern of activity was in contrast to that observed in children with ASD, who showed greater approach-related activity in response to downcast gaze than to direct gaze. ID children did not differ in their responses to different gaze conditions. These findings indicate that another person's direct gaze does not elicit approach-motivation related brain activity in young children with ASD.

Atypical physiological orienting to direct gaze in low-functioning children with autism spectrum disorder / Terhi M. HELMINEN in Autism Research, 10-5 (May 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 10-5 (May 2017) . - p.810-820 Titre : Atypical physiological orienting to direct gaze in low-functioning children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Terhi M. HELMINEN, Auteur ; Jukka M. LEPPANEN, Auteur ; Kai ERIKSSON, Auteur ; Arto LUOMA, Auteur ; Jari K. HIETANEN, Auteur ; Anneli KYLLIAINEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.810-820 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  eye contact  attention  orienting  heart rate Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Reduced use of eye contact is a prominent feature in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It has been proposed that direct gaze does not capture the attention of individuals with ASD. Experimental evidence is, however, mainly restricted to relatively high-functioning school-aged children or adults with ASD. This study investigated whether 2–5-year-old low-functioning children with severe ASD differ from control children in orienting to gaze stimuli, as measured with the heart rate deceleration response. Responses were measured to computerized presentations of dynamic shifts of gaze direction either toward (direct) or away (averted) from the observing child. The results showed a significant group by gaze direction interaction effect on heart rate responses (permuted P = .004), reflecting a stronger orienting response to direct versus averted gaze in typically developing (N = 17) and developmentally delayed (N = 16) children but not in children with ASD (N = 12). The lack of enhanced orienting response to direct gaze in the ASD group was not caused by a lack of looking at the eye region, as confirmed by eye tracking. The results suggest that direct gaze is not a socially salient, attention-grabbing signal for low-functioning children with ASD.

Feasibility and preliminary efficacy of motivating eye gaze in young children on autism spectrum through parent-mediated intervention / M. MUUVILA in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 98 (October 2022)

Twenty (aged 3-6) autistic children were randomly assigned to an intervention or a control group. The intervention group parents were trained to perform three types of practices with their children for four months. The feasibility of recruitment, data collection and analysis procedures, acceptability and adherence were investigated. To study the usability and preliminary efficacy of two outcome measures, eye gaze and state of engagement with parents were observed during a 10-minute free-play session at baseline, after 4-6 months, and after two years. The results indicated support for the feasibility and efficacy, demonstrating a significant increase in eye gaze and engagement in the intervention group but not in the control group. It is an encouraging preliminary finding that the engagement increased after supporting the orientation towards the eye region, indicating beneficial effects for further social-communicative development in autistic children.

Generalisability of a parent-mediated eye gaze intervention in young autistic children: An ADOS-BOSCC outcome study / Elina HUSU in Research in Autism, 128 (October 2025)

ADOS-BOSCC change scores were compared between intervention and control groups in both the short-term (closely after intervention, average five months after the baseline) and long-term (2-year follow-up), revealing no significant differences in domain-level changes. Item-level analysis indicated that the intervention generalised eye gaze across communication partners in semi-structured researcher-child interactions after the intervention. Interestingly, the intervention might have temporarily slowed progress in gestures and the integration of vocal and non-vocal communication, as evidenced by the control group’s greater short-term improvement. However, in the long-term, the intervention group achieved the same level of progress as the control group in gestures and integration. Overall, results indicate that targeted parent-mediated interventions can facilitate children’s generalisation of learned social skills—such as gaze—from interactions with parents at home to interactions with unfamiliar adults outside the home. Our findings highlight the need for interventions to target multiple social skills and diverse interaction partners to promote meaningful generalisation across real-world contexts.
