Autistic Traits, Empathizing–Systemizing, and Gender Diversity

Archives of Sexual Behavior, 2020
Abstract Previous research indicates a link between autism and transgender and gender-diverse identities, though the association is not yet fully understood. The current study examined autistic traits (Autism Spectrum Quotient [AQ]), empathizing (Empathizing Quotient-Short [EQ-S]), and systemizing (Systemizing ...

Autistic traits predict underestimation of emotional abilities.

Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2021
People vary in their self-awareness of their own emotions, and this may predict psychological well-being. Evidence suggests that emotional self-awareness is diminished in autism, but these findings may be biased by self-report or confounded by verbal intelligence.

A clustering approach for autistic trait classification [PDF]

Informatics for Health and Social Care, 2020
Machine learning (ML) techniques can be utilized by physicians, clinicians, as well as other users, to discover Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) symptoms based on historical cases and controls to enhance autism screening efficiency and accuracy. The aim of this study is to improve the performance of detecting ASD traits by reducing data dimensionality ...

Traits Contributing to the Autistic Spectrum

PLoS ONE, 2010
It is increasingly recognised that traits associated with autism reflect a spectrum with no clear boundary between typical and atypical behaviour. Dimensional traits are needed to investigate the broader autism phenotype.Ninety-three individual measures reflecting components of social, communication and repetitive behaviours characterising autistic ...

Autistic traits foster effective curiosity-driven exploration

PLOS Computational Biology, 2023
Exploration involves actively engaging with the environment to acquire new knowledge. Here, we hypothesize that the cognitive mechanisms underlying exploratory behavior may differ across individuals depending on personal characteristics such as autistic traits. In turn, this variability might impact successful exploration.

Associations between the pupil light reflex and the broader autism phenotype in children and adults

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
The pupil light reflex (PLR), a marker of neuronal response to light, is a well-studied index of autonomic functioning. Studies have found that autistic children and adults have slower and weaker PLR responses compared to non-autistic peers, suggesting ...

Autistic trait interactions underlie sex-dependent facial recognition abilities in the normal population [PDF]

, 2013
Autistic face processing difficulties are either uniquely social or due to a piecemeal cognitive "style". Co-morbidity of social deficits and piecemeal cognition in autism makes teasing apart these accounts difficult.
