A cross-cultural study showing deficits in gaze-language coordination during rapid automatized naming among individuals with ASD

Abstract Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their first-degree relatives demonstrate automaticity deficits reflected in reduced eye-voice coordination during rapid automatized naming (RAN), suggesting that RAN deficits may be a genetically meaningful marker of ASD language-related i...
