Vagaries of visual perception in autism
Three classes of perceptual phenomena have repeatedly been associated with autism
spectrum disorder (ASD): superior processing of fine detail (local structure), either inferior …

The neural bases of spatial frequency processing during scene perception
Theories on visual perception agree that scenes are processed in terms of spatial
frequencies. Low spatial frequencies (LSF) carry coarse information whereas high spatial …

Children with autism show local precedence in a divided attention task and global precedence in a selective attention task
K Plaisted, J Swettenham, L Rees - The Journal of Child Psychology …, 1999 - cambridge.org
Children with a diagnosis of autism and typically develo** children were given two
variations of the Navon task (Navon, 1977), which required responding to a target that could …

Coarse blobs or fine edges? Evidence that information diagnosticity changes the perception of complex visual stimuli
Efficient categorizations of complex visual stimuli require effective encodings of their
distinctive properties. However, the question remains of how processes of object and scene …

High motion coherence thresholds in children with autism
Background: We assessed motion processing in a group of high functioning children with
autism and a group of typically develo** children, using a coherent motion detection task …

Configural processing in autism and its relationship to face processing
Studies of the perceptual performance of individuals with autism have focused, to a large
extent, on two domains of visual behavior, one associated with face processing and the …

Neural mechanisms involved in the processing of global and local aspects of hierarchically organized visual stimuli.
We investigated the functional anatomy involved in sustaining or switching visual attention
between different perceptual levels, using functional imaging measures of neural activity …
