Atypical Predictive Processing Is Associated With Sensory Over‐Responsivity in Autism

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism is characterized by sensory processing atypicalities including sensory over‐responsivity (SOR), a heightened negative response to sensory stimuli. Although the neural mechanisms underlying SOR are not fully understood, SOR has been associated with sensory‐limbic hyper‐reactivity during sensory stimulation.

Deep exon resequencing of DLGAP2 as a candidate gene of autism spectrum disorders

open access: yes, 2014
Background: We recently reported a terminal deletion of approximately 2.4 Mb at chromosome 8p23.2-pter in a boy with autism. The deleted region contained the DLGAP2 gene that encodes the neuronal post-synaptic density protein, discs, large (Drosophila ...

Informational and Normative Influence on Conformity in Autism

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This preregistered study examined whether adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show reduced social conformity and whether any such reduction depends on the type of social influence. Social conformity—the tendency to adjust one's judgments to align with those of others—is typically driven by normative (acceptance‐seeking) and ...

Does Ongoing Task Load Influence Prospective Remembering in Autism Spectrum Disorders?

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prospective memory (PM) refers to the cognitive ability to remember to carry out intended actions in the future. The present study investigated PM performance in autistic and non‐autistic adults as well as the impact of the cognitive load of the ongoing task on PM performance.

Lower Striatal and Cortical Calretinin Interneuron Density Associated With Altered Social Behavior in Cntnap2 Knockout Mice

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Variants in the CNTNAP2 gene, encoding the cell adhesion molecule CASPR2, have been identified as genetic risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the mechanisms through which CNTNAP2 dysfunction alters circuit function remain unknown.
