Evaluation of the Social Attention Hypothesis: Do Children with Autism Prefer to See Objects Rather than People? / Isik AKIN-BULBUL in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 56-4 (April 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 56-4 (April 2026) . - p.1339-1353 Titre : Evaluation of the Social Attention Hypothesis: Do Children with Autism Prefer to See Objects Rather than People? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Isik AKIN-BULBUL, Auteur ; Selda OZDEMIR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1339-1353 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A growing body of research shows that children with autism exhibit selective limitations in their ability to direct their visual attention to social stimuli. The cause of this selective limitation, however, remains unknown. The main purpose of this study is to determine whether the limitations in social attention are influenced by the objects in the environment. Specifically, the study examines the differences in visual attention between children with autism and typically developing (TD) children as they view videos of social interactions under two conditions, with and without objects. The sample consisted of 53 children with autism and 74 TD children, aged between 18 and 36 months. The findings indicated that young children with autism exhibited differences in their social attention compared to their TD peers. The results revealed that the presence of objects did not affect the visual attention differences between the two groups. However, removing objects from the environment positively impacted the social attention of both groups. In the condition without objects, both groups directed more visual attention more toward the Face and Body Areas of Interests (AoIs), whereas in the condition with objects, both groups prioritized looking at the Toy AoI. These findings have important implications for evidence-based decision-making, especially in designing early intervention environments for children with autism.

Imitation Performance in Children with Autism and the Role of Visual Attention in Imitation / Selda OZDEMIR in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-12 (December 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 53-12 (December 2023) . - p.4604-4617 Titre : Imitation Performance in Children with Autism and the Role of Visual Attention in Imitation Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Selda OZDEMIR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.4604-4617 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this study, we examined imitation performance, visual attention, and the relationship between imitation and visual attention of children with autism, developmental delay (DD), and typically developing (TD) children. The study findings revealed that children with autism and DD imitated less than TD children in all imitation tasks. Results also showed that children with autism spent less time looking at the model's face and movement area and more time looking at the external area. Lastly, the relationship between imitation and visual attention separated the study groups. The findings of the study provided new evidence that visual attention to movement area in children with autism was positively related to imitation performance in non-meaningful gestures.

The Effectiveness of Social Stories on Decreasing Disruptive Behaviors of Children with Autism: Three Case Studies / Selda OZDEMIR in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 38-9 (October 2008)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 38-9 (October 2008) . - p.1689-1696 Titre : The Effectiveness of Social Stories on Decreasing Disruptive Behaviors of Children with Autism: Three Case Studies Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Selda OZDEMIR, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.1689-1696 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Social-stories Disruptive-behaviors Intervention Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of social stories on decreasing the disruptive behaviors of children with autism. Social stories were created for three participants, ages 7 and 9, to decrease three target disruptive behaviors, using a loud voice in class, chair tipping, and cutting in lunch line. Using a multiple-baseline across participants design, social stories were implemented, and direct observations of participants’ target behaviors were conducted three times per week. The present study findings suggest that the use of properly constructed social stories without additional behavioral management interventions may be effective in decreasing the disruptive behaviors of children with autism.

Visual Attention in Joint Attention Bids: A Comparison Between Toddlers with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Typically Developing Toddlers / Selda OZDEMIR ; Isik AKIN-BULBUL ; Erol YILDIZ in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 55-2 (February 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 55-2 (February 2025) . - p.408-427 Titre : Visual Attention in Joint Attention Bids: A Comparison Between Toddlers with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Typically Developing Toddlers : Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Selda OZDEMIR, Auteur ; Isik AKIN-BULBUL, Auteur ; Erol YILDIZ, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.408-427 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Impairments in joint attention are considered core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and are crucial for early assessment and intervention. However, existing information about visual attention during joint attention and its relation to developmental functioning is limited. The current study investigated the visual attention differences between toddlers with ASD and typically developing (TD) toddlers during single and multiple joint attention cue conditions. This study further examined whether visual attention in joint attention Area of Interests (AOIs) is related to cognitive, language, and motor development in participants. Participants included 56 toddlers with ASD and 56 TD toddlers, aged 18-36 months. A passive viewing paradigm was used to assess participants' visual attention across four different joint attention conditions. Study results showed that toddlers with ASD displayed limited visual attention towards joint attention AOIs, Target, Face, and Target and Face AOIs, in all conditions. As the joint attention cues increased from Condition 1 to Condition 4, toddlers with ASD showed increased visual attention directed towards the Target AOI over the Face AOI. Moreover, increased visual attention on the joint attention AOIs was associated with improved cognitive and language development in toddlers with ASD. This research broadens our understanding of the positive relationships between visual attention to joint attention AOIs and cognitive as well as language development in toddlers with ASD, suggesting that early interventions targeting joint attention may offer promising pathways for treatment.
