Description
Face reading in autism may split into an early step that works well and a late step that works less well. Darko Sarovic and co-authors tested that split with brain wave scans in work from twenty twenty-four. Men with autism and matched peers watched real faces, face-like objects, and plain objects during the scans.
Early brain waves split face-like inputs from plain objects in both groups, which hints that face spotting stays intact. Late waves split real faces from the rest in both groups too. Yet peers showed a stronger late split of faces from objects than the autism group did. The team reads the late stage as where rich social facts are pulled from a face.
