Ten years ago, Pellicano and Burr published one of the most influential articles in the study
of autism spectrum disorders, linking them to aberrant Bayesian inference processes in the …

Habituation, the simplest form of learning preserved across species and evolution, is
characterized by a response decrease as a stimulus is repeated. This adaptive function has …

The excitatory‐inhibitory imbalance hypothesis postulates dysregulation of the gamma‐
aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate (Glu) neurotransmitter systems as a common …

Bayesian theories of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) suggest that atypical predictive
mechanisms could underlie the autistic symptomatology, but little is known about their …

Social prediction is a key feature of social cognition (SC), a function in which the modulating
role of the cerebellum is recognized. Accordingly, cerebellar alterations are reported in …

Impairment in predictive processes gained a lot of attention in recent years as an
explanation for autistic symptoms. However, empirical evidence does not always underpin …

Autistic people often have an atypical profile of abilities: while excelling in some structured
paradigms, many report difficulties with making real-life decisions. To test whether decision …

Abstract 1 H-Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) is a non-invasive technique that can
be used to quantify the concentrations of metabolites in the brain in vivo. MRS findings in the …

Background The neurobiological underpinnings of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are
diverse and likely multifactorial. One possible mechanism is increased oxidative stress …

Autistic people exhibit atypical use of prior information when processing simple perceptual
stimuli; yet, it remains unclear whether and how these difficulties in using priors extend to …
