Autism Alters Feedback Evaluation, Not Raw Perception - Neuroscience News
Google News (autism)
Autistic and non-autistic adults show similar auditory task performance, but autistic individuals exhibit distinct neural and behavioral differences in feedback evaluation, including reduced feedback-related negativity, lower sensitivity to task difficulty, and weaker reliance on prior experiences. These findings suggest that autism primarily affects how the brain processes feedback and updates expectations, rather than raw sensory perception. The results, replicated over time, highlight separate neurocognitive mechanisms underlying behavioral flexibility in autism.
