Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study of gaze patterns in very young children with autism and their parents included 23 cases (with 16 fathers and 19 mothers) and 46 controls (with 14 fathers and 28 mothers). Children (mean age 3 . 3 ± 1 . 5 years) with autism met DSM-IV and ADOS-G diagnostic criteria. The participants’ gaze patterns were recorded while they viewed four simple movies that did not feature people. In children, severity of autism is related to spending more time watching irrelevant regions in one of the four movies. The mothers of children with autism showed an atypical pattern for three movies, whereas the fathers of children with autism did not show an atypical gaze pattern. The gaze pattern of the mothers was positively correlated with that of their children. The atypical viewing pattern of autistic individuals appears not to be restricted to people and social situations but is also seen in other situations, suggesting that there is a perceptual broad autism phenotype.

Young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder look differently at positive versus negative emotional faces / Tessa C.J. DE WIT in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 2-4 (October 2008)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 2-4 (October 2008) . - p.651-659 Titre : Young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder look differently at positive versus negative emotional faces Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Tessa C.J. DE WIT, Auteur ; Claes VON HOFSTEN, Auteur ; Terje FALCK-YTTER, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.651-659 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism-Spectrum-Disorder Pervasive-developmental-disorder Face-perception Emotion-perception Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : One of the core issues in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is problematic social interaction, which for an important part is reflected by poor processing of emotional information. Typically, adults show specific viewing patterns while scanning positive and negative emotional expressions in faces. In this study, we investigated whether the same pattern is present in a group of 3- to 6-year-old children with ASD and a 5-year-old control group. We found that although the group with ASD looked less at feature areas of the face (eye, mouth, nose) than the control group, both the children with ASD and the normally developing children displayed differential scanning patterns for faces displaying positive and negative emotions. Specifically, we found increased scanning of the eye region when looking at faces displaying negative emotions. This study shows that, although young children with ASD exhibit abnormal face scanning patterns, they do exhibit differential viewing strategies while scanning positive and negative facial expressions.
