This article reviews the research and clinical literature that has investigated the topography and functions of eye-to-face gaze in normal children and adults. These data and data from a recent pilot study are then compared to the criteria typically used in eye-contact training programs with autistic children. This comparison reveals some educationally relevant discrepancies between the normative data and the training criteria. The need to base educational interventions for autistic individuals on normative standards is discussed, and suggestions for future research are provided.
本文回顾了研究正常儿童和成人眼对脸注视的地形学和功能的研究及临床文献。然后将这些数据以及来自最近一项初步研究的数据，与自闭症儿童眼神交流训练项目中通常使用的标准进行比较。这种比较揭示了规范数据与训练标准之间一些与教育相关的差异。讨论了基于规范标准对自闭症个体进行教育干预的必要性，并提供了未来研究的建议。
