Abnormal perceptual-motor coordination is hypothesized here to be involved in social deficits of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). To test this hypothesis, high functioning children with ASD and typical controls, similar in age as well as verbal and perceptive performance, performed perceptual-motor coordination tasks and several social competence tests. Spontaneous coordination, and intentionally required in-phase and anti-phase were examined. The oscillation kinematics, as well as the accuracy and stability of spontaneous coordination were similar in both groups. In intentional coordination, ASD children produced less accurate, less stable and less complex relative phases than the control group, and in-phase and anti-phase performances that were similar in accuracy, stability, and complexity. An age-dependent relationship between socio-adaptability and coordination skills suggested these skills develop together.
这里假设异常的感知运动协调与自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的社交缺陷有关。为了验证这一假设，我们让具有高功能的 ASD 儿童和典型对照组儿童（在年龄、语言和感知表现上相似）进行感知运动协调任务和多项社会能力测试。测试了自发性协调以及故意要求的同相和反相协调。两组的运动学、自发性协调的准确性和稳定性都相似。在有意协调中，ASD 儿童的动作准确性、稳定性和相对相位复杂性都低于对照组，而在同相和反相动作的准确性、稳定性和复杂性方面，两组则相似。社会适应性和协调技能之间的年龄相关性表明这些技能是一起发展的。
