“…In particular, because we and others have found a selective deficit in face recognition in autism (reviewed in ref. 13), and people with congenital face recognition deficits have reduced FA in the rILF (12), we predicted that individuals with ASD might have reduced FA in the rILF. It remains a puzzle why reduced FA in the rILF does not produce across-the-board impairments in object recognition (in congenital prosopagnosia or ASD), given that this tract carries information from many extrastriate visual areas, not just face processing regions.…”

“…Moreover, many individuals with ASD often exhibit reduced sensitivity to illusions induced by contextual influence (Behrmann, Thomas, & Humphreys, 2006;Simmons et al, 2009). Research examining composite face effects in ASD has yielded mixed results (Weigelt, Koldewyn, & Kanwisher, 2012). High-functioning adults with ASD showed broadly typical composite face effects to age-and IQ-matched controls on a sequential matching task (Nishimura, Rutherford, & Maurer, 2008).…”

“…Relative to typically developing individuals, differences and difficulties have been reported in processing of emotional expressions (see Harms, Martin, & Wallace, 2010) and social cues such as eye gaze (Nation & Penny, 2008; Senju & Johnson, 2009) (note—here and elsewhere we make use of preferred, identity-first terminology; Kenny et al, 2015). Atypicalities are also reported in the discrimination and recognition of face identity (Behrmann et al, 2006; Boucher, Lewis, & Collis, 1998; Croydon, Pimperton, Ewing, Duchaine, & Pellicano, 2014; Gepner, de Gelder, & de Schonen, 1996; Hauck, Fein, Maltby, Waterhouse, & Feinstein, 1998; Klin et al, 1999; Tantam, Monaghan, Nicholson, & Stirling, 1989; Wallace, Coleman, & Bailey, 2008), particularly when tasks involve a memory component or careful processing of the eyes (see, Weigelt, Koldewyn, & Kanwisher, 2012). These identity-processing difficulties are rarely as functionally debilitating as those deficits observed in “face blind” individuals with prosopagnosia (Behrmann & Avidan 2005; Yardley, McDermott, Pisarski, Duchaine, & Nakayama, 2008) but may nevertheless importantly contribute to the social communication and interaction difficulties characteristic of autism (Weigelt et al, 2012).…”
