Autistic young people adaptively use gaze to facilitate joint attention during multi-gestural dyadic interactions. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study investigates joint attention in autistic and non-autistic young people using a virtual reality task that does not require looking directly at the partner's face, highlighting the use of other social cues like pointing.
  • - Both groups demonstrated the ability to utilize eye gaze information, particularly when a partner looked at an object before pointing, indicating that joint attention skills are present in autistic individuals.
  • - The research suggests that by not emphasizing eye contact, autistic participants were less overwhelmed and could better process social cues, emphasizing the need for tailored task designs to showcase their abilities.

Article Abstract

Autistic people have been said to have 'problems' with joint attention, that is, looking where someone else is looking. Past studies of joint attention have used tasks that require autistic people to continuously look at and respond to eye-gaze cues. But joint attention can also be done using other social cues, like pointing. This study looked at whether autistic and non-autistic young people use another person's eye gaze during joint attention in a task that did not require them to look at their partner's face. In the task, each participant worked together with their partner to find a computer-generated object in virtual reality. Sometimes the participant had to help guide their partner to the object, and other times, they followed their partner's lead. Participants were told to point to guide one another but were not told to use eye gaze. Both autistic and non-autistic participants often looked at their partner's face during joint attention interactions and were faster to respond to their partner's hand-pointing when the partner also looked at the object before pointing. This shows that autistic people can and do use information from another person's eyes, even when they don't have to. It is possible that, by not forcing autistic young people to look at their partner's face and eyes, they were better able to gather information from their partner's face when needed, without being overwhelmed. This shows how important it is to design tasks that provide autistic people with opportunities to show what they can do.
