Research shows that children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) differ in their behavioral patterns of responding to sensory stimuli (i.e., sensory responsiveness) and in various other aspects of sensory functioning relative to typical peers. This study explored relations between measures of sensory responsiveness and multisensory speech perception and integration in children with and without ASD. Participants were 8-17 year old children, 18 with ASD and 18 matched typically developing controls. Participants completed a psychophysical speech perception task, and parents reported on children's sensory responsiveness. Psychophysical measures (e.g., audiovisual accuracy, temporal binding window) were associated with patterns of sensory responsiveness (e.g., hyporesponsiveness, sensory seeking). Results indicate that differences in multisensory speech perception and integration covary with atypical patterns of sensory responsiveness.
研究表明，自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童在对感官刺激的反应行为模式（即感官反应性）以及各种其他感官功能方面与典型同龄人存在差异。本研究探讨了 ASD 儿童和非 ASD 儿童的感官反应性测量与多感官言语感知和整合之间的关系。参与者为 8-17 岁的儿童，其中 18 名患有 ASD，18 名匹配的典型发育对照组。参与者完成了一项心理物理言语感知任务，父母报告了儿童的感官反应性。心理物理测量（例如，视听准确性，时间绑定窗口）与感官反应性模式相关（例如，反应迟钝，寻求感官刺激）。结果表明，多感官言语感知和整合的差异与异常的感官反应性模式有关。
