ABSTRACT Prominent theories of autism suggest autism‐associated differences in visual‐motor integration (VMI) may disrupt learning of motor and social skills typically acquired by observation and imitation. Supporting these theories, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show robust differences in motor tasks reliant on dynamic VMI (e.g., ball ...
