An extended multisensory temporal binding window in autism spectrum disorders
Open accessAbstract
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) form a continuum of neurodevelopmental disorders, characterized by deficits in communication and reciprocal social interaction, as well as by repetitive behaviors and restricted interests. Sensory disturbances are also frequently reported in clinical and autobiographical accounts. However, surprisingly few empirical studies have characterized the fundamental features of sensory and multisensory processing in ASD. The current study is structured to test for potential differences in multisensory temporal function in ASD by making use of a temporally dependent, low-level multisensory illusion. In this illusion, the presentation of a single flash of light accompanied by multiple sounds often results in the illusory perception of multiple flashes. By systematically varying the temporal structure of the audiovisual stimuli, a "temporal window" within which these stimuli are likely to be bound into a single perceptual entity can be defined. The results of this study revealed that children with ASD report the flash-beep illusion over an extended range of stimulus onset asynchronies relative to children with typical development, suggesting that children with ASD have altered multisensory temporal function. These findings provide valuable new insights into our understanding of sensory processing in ASD and may hold promise for the development of more sensitive diagnostic measures and improved remediation strategies.

In the citing paper
“The perception of multisensory illusions such as the McGurk effect (Woynaroski et al., 2013) and the sound-induced flash illusion (Foss-Feig et al., 2010) are less influenced by temporal discrepancies between the auditory and visual presentations in ASD children when compared with their TD peers.”

In the citing paper
“with evidence of abnormal integration of auditory and visual stimuli during the flash-beep illusion, either perceiving the illusion over a longer temporal window (Foss-Feig et al., 2010), or being less susceptible to the illusion (Stevenson et al., 2014b).”

In the citing paper
“There is converging evidence that the “temporal binding window” is extended in individuals with ASD, which may give rise to alterations in sensory processing (see Wallace and Stevenson, 2014 for a review; Foss-Feig et al., 2010, Kwakye et al., 2011, Stevenson et al., 2014b).”

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.
