Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and typically developing (TD) controls underwent a rigorous psychophysical assessment that measured contrast sensitivity to seven spatial frequencies (0.5 to 20 cycles/degree). A contrast sensitivity function (CSF) was then fitted for each participant, from which four measures were obtained: visual acuity, peak spatial frequency, peak contrast sensitivity, and contrast sensitivity at a low spatial frequency. There were no group differences on any of the four CSF measures, indicating no differential spatial frequency processing in ASD.Although it has been suggested that detail-oriented visual perception in individuals with ASD may be a result of differential sensitivities to low vs. high spatial frequencies, the current study finds no evidence to support this hypothesis.
