Now out in PNAS! I love this discovery by the fantastic @sophiewohltjen. Eye contact has a robust and precise relationship with synchrony between people during conversation. A short thread on what we found: (1/9) pnas.org/content/118/37…

Missing seeing everyone in person, but still excited about #SRCD2021 and very proud of all the work our research group is presenting

Excellent meta-analysis about the common brain networks underlying human social interactions! ⁦@INM7_ISN⁩ ⁦@eredcay⁩ sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🚨New paper! We've developed the Four-Item Mentalising Index (FIMI) - in Psych Assessment @APA_Journals First questionnaire measure of mentalising/theory of mind (& NOT empathy/other social abilities) Freely available for use in adults (#autistic & non-autistic) THREAD👇

Our work on exploration in children with and without ASD is out today! We found no differences in the way that children in both groups attend to and act on toys when they're playing with a parent! @DanKennedyIU @Chen_Yu_CY #Abs1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4159…

A thread about our new open-access paper, just out today. We tested how well standardized measures of social cognition, social skill, and social motivation predict real-world social interaction outcomes for autistic and non-autistic (NA) adults. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

My conceptual paper in which I describe social cognition and social emotion disturbances in young children as a mechanism in the development of social anxiety disorder is now online and open access in #childdevelopmentperspectives @SRCDtweets dx.doi.org/10.1111/cdep.1…

New #doubleempathy findings in PNAS: autistic kids can tell when other autistic kids are acting gently or rudely, but neurotypical adults can't. pnas.org/content/early/…

New by @kmdebrabander and our lab: Autistic adults don’t differ from non-autistic adults in the accuracy of their self-assessment on general cognitive tasks but are less accurate on social cognitive tasks. This however was unrelated to social functioning link.springer.com/article/10.100…

I am thrilled that our #SCAN Special Issue on #InterpersonalSynchrony is taking shape 🧠🧠 #OpenAccess Here are some of the first contributions: (thread)

Releasing my baby of the past 4 years into the wild academic world! We present an alternative for Theory of Mind in Psychological Bulletin: Understanding others is not about inferring others’ mental states. Autism is not tied to mindblindness. bit.ly/32KpN5y 1/7

🚨New paper with @DrJamieW & @antoniahamilton!🚨 We investigate eye gaze and facial motion dynamics of typical and autistic adults in a structured conversation, across video, videocall and face-to-face setups. 1/3 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13…

Beyond excited to share our latest work, co 1st authored with @tervoclemmensb. Using #ABCDStudy data, we show that the effect sizes of brain-wide associations and sampling variability are a key element of replication failures in typical sample sizes. 1/x biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
