Autistic traits modulate the influence of face masks on gaze perception (2023)
Journal Article
Williams, E. H., Thompson, N. M., McCray, G., & Chakrabarti, B. (in press). Autistic traits modulate the influence of face masks on gaze perception. Scientific Reports, 13(1), Article 14921. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-41900-0

Detecting when others are looking at us is a crucial social skill. Accordingly, a range of gaze angles is perceived as self-directed; this is termed the “cone of direct gaze” (CoDG). Multiple cues, such as nose and head orientation, are integrated du... Read More about Autistic traits modulate the influence of face masks on gaze perception.
