Few attempts have been made to conduct randomised control trials (RCTs) of interventions for pre-school children with autism. We report findings of a pilot RCT for a parent training intervention with a focus on the development of joint attention...

PMID: 26124950
Mol Autism. 2015 Jun 21;6:40. doi: 10.1186/s13229-015-0032-1. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: There is growing research evidence that subclinical autistic traits are elevated in relatives of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), continuously distributed in the general population and likely to share common etiology with ASD. A number of measures...

Identifying endophenotypes of autism: a multivariate approach.

Frontiers in computational neuroscience

Segovia F, Holt R, Spencer M, Górriz JM, Ramírez J, Puntonet CG, Phillips C, Chura L, Baron-Cohen S, Suckling J.
PMID: 24936183
Front Comput Neurosci. 2014 Jun 06;8:60. doi: 10.3389/fncom.2014.00060. eCollection 2014.

The existence of an endophenotype of autism spectrum condition (ASC) has been recently suggested by several commentators. It can be estimated by finding differences between controls and people with ASC that are also present when comparing controls and the...

Atypical integration of social cues for orienting to gaze direction in adults with autism.

Molecular autism

Ashwin C, Hietanen JK, Baron-Cohen S.
PMID: 25685307
Mol Autism. 2015 Jan 26;6(1):5. doi: 10.1186/2040-2392-6-5. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Gaze direction provides important information about social attention, and people tend to reflexively orient in the direction others are gazing. Perceiving the gaze of others relies on the integration of multiple social cues, which include perceptual information related...

Unraveling the paradox of the autistic self.

Wiley interdisciplinary reviews. Cognitive science

Lombardo MV, Baron-Cohen S.
PMID: 26271379
Wiley Interdiscip Rev Cogn Sci. 2010 May;1(3):393-403. doi: 10.1002/wcs.45. Epub 2010 Apr 07.

Paradoxically, individuals with autism spectrum conditions have been characterized as both impaired in self-referential cognitive processing, yet also egocentric. How can the self in autism be both 'absent' (i.e., impaired self-referential cognition), yet 'all too present' (i.e., egocentric)? In...

The Cambridge Mindreading Face-Voice Battery for Children (CAM-C): complex emotion recognition in children with and without autism spectrum conditions.

Molecular autism

Golan O, Sinai-Gavrilov Y, Baron-Cohen S.
PMID: 25932320
Mol Autism. 2015 Apr 23;6:22. doi: 10.1186/s13229-015-0018-z. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Difficulties in recognizing emotions and mental states are central characteristics of autism spectrum conditions (ASC). However, emotion recognition (ER) studies have focused mostly on recognition of the six 'basic' emotions, usually using still pictures of faces.METHODS: This study...

Are children with autism deaf to gricean maxims?.

Cognitive neuropsychiatry

Surian L, Baron-Cohen S, Van der Lely H.
PMID: 16571474

Department of Psychology, Birkbeck College, University of London, UK High-functioning children with autism show a severe deficit in the development of pragmatics whereas their knowledge of syntax and morphology is relatively intact. In this study we investigated further their...

Genetics in psychiatry: common variant association studies.

Molecular autism

Buxbaum JD, Baron-Cohen S, Devlin B.
PMID: 20678248
Mol Autism. 2010 Mar 25;1(1):6. doi: 10.1186/2040-2392-1-6.

Many psychiatric conditions and traits are associated with significant heritability. Genetic risk for psychiatric conditions encompass rare variants, identified due to major effect, as well as common variants, the latter analyzed by association analyses. We review guidelines for common...

Parents of Children with Asperger Syndrome: What is the Cognitive Phenotype?.

Journal of cognitive neuroscience

Baron-Cohen S, Hammer J.
PMID: 23968217
J Cogn Neurosci. 1997 Jul;9(4):548-54. doi: 10.1162/jocn.1997.9.4.548.

Two cognitive anomalies have been found in autism: a superiority on the Embedded Figures Task and a deficit in "theory of mind." Using adult-level versions of these tasks, the present study investigated if parents of children with Asperger Syndrome...

DSM-5: the debate continues.

BACKGROUND: Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC) are a group of neurodevelopmental conditions characterized by impairments in communication and social interaction, alongside unusually repetitive behaviors and narrow interests. ASC are highly heritable and have complex patterns of inheritance where multiple genes...
