Auditory Sensitivity in Autism: A Systematic Review of Mismatch Negativity and Mismatch Field Responses

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Auditory mismatch responses—mismatch negativity (MMN) and mismatch fields (MMF)—are well established electrophysiological markers of automatic auditory discrimination supported by short‐term sensory memory. These responses, typically elicited using passive oddball paradigms, are increasingly used to investigate sensory and language processing ...

Limited Discrepancy Between Cognitive Ability and Daily Living Skills in Autism: A Longitudinal Study From Ages 2–25

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many autistic individuals with average or higher cognitive abilities (also referred to as intelligence quotient; IQ) exhibit weaker than expected daily living skills (DLS). However, existing evidence is primarily cross‐sectional. This study examined: (1) how IQ‐DLS discrepancies develop from early childhood through early adulthood, (2) whether

Beyond the Outburst: Charting a New Frontier for Understanding and Treating Irritability in Autistic Adults

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Irritability is a prevalent and impairing feature associated with autism, yet remains poorly understood, particularly in adults. Drawing heavily on insights translated from pediatric and transdiagnostic literatures, we propose that irritability in autistic individuals often reflects a psychophysiological stress or threat response, rooted in a ...

Linking Brain Morphometry to Psychometric Measures and Energy‐Metabolic Biomarkers in Adults With Autism Spectrum Disorder

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with differences in neurodevelopment and altered metabolism, yet the interplay between brain morphometry, mitochondrial and energy metabolism biomarkers, and autistic traits in adults remains poorly understood. This study investigates the link between brain structure, psychometric measures, and both
