Abstract

The saccadic eye movements, generated during a visual oddball task, of autistic children, normal children, children with attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity (ADDH), and dyslexic children were examined to determine whether autistic children differed from these other groups in saccadic frequency. Autistic children made more saccades during the presentation of frequent stimuli (than normals and ADDH children), and between stimulus presentations. Also, unlike the normal and dyslexic groups, their saccadic frequency did not depend on stimulus type. This abnormal pattern of saccades may negatively influence the ability to attend to stimuli, and thereby learning processes. Suggestions are made with respect to possible abnormalities in subcortical mechanisms involved in saccade generation.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

  • Older individuals with ASD do not show variability in fixation duration contingent on familiarity and task demands.

    “Thus, there is evidence that older individuals with ASD do not show variability in fixation duration contingent on familiarity and task demands.”

  • Fixation durations were assessed based on eye-tracker data, rather than on hand coding of fixation durations or EOG.

    “A final limitation of the present findings is that fixation durations were assessed based on eye-tracker data, rather than on hand coding of fixation durations (cf refs. 38, 39) or EOG21.”

  • Kemner and colleagues found that 8-12-year-old children with ASD made more saccades, reflecting shorter fixation durations, than children with typical development or ADHD when viewing static geometric shapes.

    “For example, Kemner and colleagues21 found that 8-12-year-old children with ASD made more saccades (reflecting shorter fixation durations) than children with typical development or ADHD when viewing static geometric shapes (see also Refs. 22, 23 - although findings on fixation durations in adults with ASD are not consistent24).”

  • Typically developing children made more saccades, suggesting shorter fixation durations, when viewing familiar compared to unfamiliar objects, whereas children with ASD did not.

    “They also found that whilst typically developing children made more saccades (suggesting shorter fixation durations) when viewing familiar compared to unfamiliar objects, children with ASD did not21.”

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.
