Researchers developed a flexible sensor system using liquid metal electrodes to detect color preferences in autistic children through touch-based interaction combined with machine learning. The system achieved 98% recognition accuracy and offers a non-burdensome method for individualized color preference assessment.
This cross-cultural study examined narrative ability and visual attention patterns in autistic individuals from the United States and Hong Kong using eye-tracking technology while participants narrated a wordless picture book. Results indicated that autistic individuals from both cultures exhibited similar difficulties with identifying key story components and demonstrated more rigid gaze patterns compared to non-autistic controls, suggesting cultural and linguistic factors interact with autism to influence narrative abilities.
