Abstract

Fifteen children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and twenty-one children without ASD completed six perceptual tasks designed to characterize the nature of the audiovisual processing difficulties experienced by children with ASD. Children with ASD scored significantly lower than children without ASD on audiovisual tasks involving human faces and voices, but scored similarly to children without ASD on audiovisual tasks involving nonhuman stimuli (bouncing balls). Results suggest that children with ASD may use visual information for speech differently from children without ASD. Exploratory results support an inverse association between audiovisual speech processing capacities and social impairment in children with ASD.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Speech, as a complex multisensory signal, shows a stronger tendency to be differentially affected in ASD compared with non-speech stimuli.

    “Speech, which is an inherently complex multisensory signal, shows a much stronger tendency to be differentially affected in ASD when compared with the processing of non-speech stimuli (Bebko et al., 2006; Mongillo et al., 2008; Stevenson et al., 2014c)”
  • Most studies conclude that individuals with ASD are less likely to report perceptual fusion in the McGurk effect, with their choices typically reflecting the auditory stimulus.

    “Most studies have concluded that individuals with ASD are less likely to report this perceptual fusion, with their choices typically reflecting the auditory stimulus (i.e., “ba” (de Gelder et al., 1991; Irwin et al., 2011; Mongillo et al., 2008; Stevenson et al., 2014c; Stevenson et al., 2014d; Williams et al., 2004)”

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.
