Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study set up two experiments using the free viewing video paradigm. By setting up social threat scenarios induced by humans (Experiment 1) and non social threat scenarios induced by objects (Experiment 2), combined with eye tracking and fNIRS technology, we explored the eye movement patterns and related brain activation characteristics of IJA in children with ASD.
