Young children with autism spectrum disorder use predictive eye movements in action observationTerje Falck-Ytter
Department of Psychology, Uppsala University, Box 1225, 751 42 Uppsala, Sweden
Biol Lett 6:375-8. 2010..Gaze was reactive in the self-propelled condition, suggesting that prediction is linked to seeing a hand-object interaction. This study does not support the view that ASD is characterized by a global dysfunction in the MNS...
Infants predict other people's action goalsTerje Falck-Ytter
Department of Psychology, Uppsala University, Box 1225, 751 42 Uppsala, Sweden
Nat Neurosci 9:878-9. 2006..The activation of this system requires observing an interaction between the hand of the agent and an object...
Face inversion effects in autism: a combined looking time and pupillometric studyTerje Falck-Ytter
Department of Psychology, Uppsala University, Box 1225, Uppsala 751 42, Sweden
Autism Res 1:297-306. 2008..Pupil dilation, reflecting increased processing load, was larger for inverted than upright faces in the ASD group only, and pupillary inversion effects were stronger in ASD than in typically developing children...
Processing of low spatial frequency faces at periphery in choice reaching tasksBhuvanesh Awasthi
Macquarie Centre for Cognitive Science, Macquarie University, NSW 2109, Australia
Neuropsychologia 49:2136-41. 2011..These results demonstrate that peripherally presented LSF information, carried chiefly by magnocellular channels, enables efficient processing of faces, possibly via a retinotectal (subcortical) pathway...
Human infants orient to biological motion rather than audiovisual synchronyTerje Falck-Ytter
Department of Psychology, Uppsala University, Box 1225, 751 42 Uppsala, Sweden
Neuropsychologia 49:2131-5. 2011..Thus, infants oriented to biological motion rather than multimodally unified physical events. These findings have important implications for understanding the developmental trajectory of brain specialization in early human infancy...
Face scanning distinguishes social from communication impairments in autismTerje Falck-Ytter
Department of Psychology, Uppsala University, Sweden
Dev Sci 13:864-75. 2010..The results also suggest that a similar differentiation of looking behaviour may operate in normal development...
