    Exp Brain Res 201:155-65. 2010
    ..Moreover, since there were no group differences between arrow and eye gaze cues, we conclude that overt attentional orienting in ASD, at least in response to centrally presented schematic directional distractors, is typical...

    Gustav Kuhn
    Department of Psychology, University of Durham, Durham, England

    J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 31:1417-32. 2005

    University of Durham, Durham, UK
    Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) 63:147-59. 2010

    Geoff G Cole
    Durham University, Durham, England
    Atten Percept Psychophys 73:1407-21. 2011

    Psychon Bull Rev 18:89-95. 2011
