Impaired Global, and Compensatory Local, Biological Motion Processing in People with High Levels of Autistic Traits
People with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are hypothesized to have poor high-level processing but superior low-level processing, causing impaired social recognition, and a focus on non-social stimulus contingencies. Biological motion perception provides an ideal domain to investigate exactly how ASD modulates the interaction between low and high-level processing, because it involves multiple p...
متن کاملBayesian Models of Individual Differences: Combining Autistic Traits and Sensory Thresholds to Predict Motion Perception
According to Bayesian models, perception and cognition depend on the optimal combination of noisy incoming evidence with prior knowledge of the world. Individual differences in perception should therefore be jointly determined by a person’s sensitivity to incoming evidence and his or her prior expectations. It has been proposed that individuals with autism have flatter prior distributions than ...
متن کاملNeural adaptation in pSTS correlates with perceptual aftereffects to biological motion and with autistic traits
The adaptive nature of biological motion perception has been documented in behavioral studies, with research showing that prolonged viewing of an action can bias judgments of subsequent actions towards the opposite of its attributes. However, the neural mechanisms underlying action adaptation aftereffects remain unknown. We examined adaptation-induced changes in brain responses to an ambiguous ...
متن کاملIndividual differences in general intelligence correlate with brain function during nonreasoning tasks
Brain imaging can help identify the functional neuroanatomy of general intelligence (i.e., ‘‘g’’) and indicate how brain areas salient to g relate to information processing. An important question is whether individual differences in g among subjects are related to brain function even when nonreasoning tasks are studied. If so, this would imply that individuals with high g scores may process inf...
متن کاملDecreased reward value of biological motion among individuals with autistic traits
The Social Motivation Theory posits that a reduced sensitivity to the value of social stimuli, specifically faces, can account for social impairments in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Research has demonstrated that typically developing (TD) individuals preferentially orient towards another type of salient social stimulus, namely biological motion. Individuals with ASD, however, do not show th...
