Abstract

The impaired development of joint attention is a cardinal feature of autism. Therefore, understanding the nature of joint attention is central to research on this disorder. Joint attention may be best defined in terms of an information‐processing system that begins to develop by 4–6 months of age. This system integrates the parallel processing of internal information about one's own visual attention with external information about the visual attention of other people. This type of joint encoding of information about self and other attention requires the activation of a distributed anterior and posterior cortical attention network. Genetic regulation, in conjunction with self‐organizing behavioral activity, guides the development of functional connectivity in this network. With practice in infancy the joint processing of self–other attention becomes automatically engaged as an executive function. It can be argued that this executive joint attention is fundamental to human learning as well as the development of symbolic thought, social cognition and social competence throughout the life span. One advantage of this parallel and distributed‐processing model of joint attention is that it directly connects theory on social pathology to a range of phenomena in autism associated with neural connectivity, constructivist and connectionist models of cognitive development, early intervention, activity‐dependent gene expression and atypical ocular motor control.

Children with ASD lack declarative pointing and are impaired at initiating and responding to others' bids for joint attention.
“children with ASD lack declarative pointing [64], they are impaired at initiating [65] and responding to others’ bids for joint attention [66]”

A failure to shift from the magnocellular to parvocellular pathway in ASD early in life could underlie delayed gaze detection abilities.
“At the neurobiological level, a failure to shift from the magnocellular to parvocellular pathway in ASD early in life (Mundy et al., 2009, McCleery et al., 2007) could underlie delayed gaze detection abilities, since these pathways coordinate distinct patterns of visual preference.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
