This article proposes a link between autistic people being misperceived by the neurotypical majority and their at risk of poor mental health well-being. We present transactional account development in which misperceptions (and consequent behaviour) influences perceptions behaviour such that they become increasingly separate indeed isolated from mainstream society. jeopardizes prevents developing to full potential. The situation is not only problematical for but also detriment wider society,...
It has been known for some time that larger graphs can be interpreted if laid out in 3D and displayed with stereo and/or motion depth cues to support spatial perception. However, prior studies were carried using displays provided a level of detail far short what the human visual system is capable resolving. Therefore, we undertook graph comprehension study very high resolution stereoscopic display. In our first experiment, examined effect display, kinetic depth, tubes versus lines display...
This paper reports the findings of a time series analysis exploring fundamental determinants substantial rise in U.K. self‐employment over period 1972–92. The key are that self‐employed/wage‐employed income differential has high and positive effect upon proportion workforce self‐employment, supporting alternative wage theories labour market status, as does housing wealth, credit‐rationing theories. Perhaps most interesting feature concerns relationship between unemployment self‐employment....
The potential for using virtual environments (VEs) in educational contexts people with autistic spectrum disorders (ASDs) has been recognized. However, very little is known about how ASDs interpret and understand VEs. This study aimed to investigate this directly a group of 12 adolescents ASDs, each individually matched comparison participants. Participants were presented VEs assess whether they adhered particular social conventions, such as not walking across grass flowerbeds en route café,...
The link between autistic people having a mind that is difficult to read (by neurotypical participants) and being perceived unfavorably was investigated. Videoed Autistic targets from Sheppard et al. (PLOS ONE 7(11):e49859, 2016) were scored for how readable they when reacting distinctive greeting the experimenter. These videos presented new groups of perceivers (neurotypical adults) who rated more socially favorably than irrespective whether details experimenter's concealed (Study 1) or...
A recent finding that individuals with autism are not susceptible to illusions has been explained by Happé (1996) as a sign of "weak central coherence" at lower levels processing. We investigated the phenomenon more sophisticated measure. In Experiment 1, autism, Asperger's syndrome, moderate learning difficulties, and typical development adjusted certain comparison lines circles make them appear be same size in four visual illusions. With minor exception, participants syndrome evinced...
