Adaptive sensory coding of gaze direction in schizophrenia by Colin J. Palmer, Nathan Caruana, Colin W. G. Clifford, Kiley J. Seymour

“…We find that individuals with schizophrenia display strong perceptual aftereffects following repeated exposure to faces with averted gaze, and a modelling analysis indicates similarly robust gain control in the form of (i) short-term adjustment of channel sensitivities in response to the recent sensory history and (ii) divisive normalization of the encoded gaze direction. …”

Adaptation of social and non-social cues to direction in adults with autism spectrum disorder and neurotypical adults with autistic traits by Rebecca P. Lawson, Jessica Aylward, Jonathan P. Roiser, Geraint Rees

“…Perceptual constancy strongly relies on adaptive gain control mechanisms, which shift perception as a function of recent sensory history. Here we examined the extent to which individual differences in magnitude of adaptation aftereffects for social and non-social directional cues are related to autistic traits and sensory sensitivity in healthy participants (Experiment 1); and also whether adaptation for social and non-social directional cues is differentially impacted in adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) relative to neurotypical (NT) controls (Experiment 2). …”
