Postural orientation and equilibrium processes associated with increased postural sway in autism spectrum disorder (ASD)

Increased postural sway has been repeatedly documented in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Characterizing the control processes underlying this deficit, including postural orientation and equilibrium, may provide key insights into neurophysiological mechanisms associated with ASD. Po…
