Over 90% of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) demonstrate atypical sensory
behaviors. In fact, hyper-or hyporeactivity to sensory input or unusual interest in sensory …

Sensory processing abnormalities in autism have largely been described by parent report.
This study used a multi-method (parent-report and measurement), multi-trait (tactile …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review aims to summarize the current body of behavioral,
physiological, and molecular knowledge concerning tactile sensitivity in autism spectrum …

Abstract 'Social brain'circuitry has recently been implicated in processing slow, gentle touch
targeting a class of slow-conducting, unmyelinated nerves, CT afferents, which are present …

The thalamus is a key sensorimotor relay area that is implicated in autism spectrum disorder
(ASD). However, it is unknown how the thalamus and white‐matter structures that contain …

Sensory processing abnormalities are among the most common behavioral phenotypes
seen in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), typically characterized by either over-or under …

Sensory abnormalities are commonly recognized as diagnostic criteria in autism spectrum
disorder (ASD), as reported in the last edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of …

The neural underpinnings of sensory processing differences in autism remain poorly
understood. This prospective magnetoencephalography (MEG) study investigates whether …

It is hypothesized that brain network abnormalities in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) reflect
local overconnectivity and long-range underconnectivity. However, this is not a consistent …

The goal of this study was to explore neural response to touch in children with and without
autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Patterns of reduced (hypo-responsiveness) and enhanced …
