TT - سازمان ادراکی و انسجام مرکزی حین پردازش‌های دیداری در کودکان اُتیسم: شواهدی برای از هم گسیختگی ارتباطات کارکردی در مغز اُتیستیک N2 - Objective: A variety of evidence demonstrate altered perceptual functioning during visual processing in the brain of children with autism.it possibly is related to or the cause other diagnostic symptom in autism spectrum. In the present study visual perceptual organization in autistic children is studied. These processes require central coherence and typical functional connectivity among neural structure in the brain. Materials & Methods: 25 high functioning autistic and 25 neuro -typical boys were assessed in term of visual perceptual processing. Visual stimuli include fragmented (incomplete) and complete images of animate and inanimate objects which presented in a monitor. The subject’s task was rapid and accurate naming of images that have been seen. Responses compare by independent-T. Also the effect of completeness and image type factors on samples’ visual processing analyzed by repeated measure analysis of variance. Results: Interaction effects of completeness, image type and group on subjects’ visual processing were significant (P SP - 12 EP - 21 AU - Bayrami, Mansoureh AU - Hashemi, Touraj AU - Mahmoud-Alilou, Majid AU - Alizadeh-Zarei, Mehdi AD - Department of Occupational Therapy, Faculty of Rehabilitation, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran KW - Autism KW - Central coherence KW - Perceptual organization KW - Functional connectivity KW - Image recognition UR - http://rehabilitationj.uswr.ac.ir/article-1-1406-en.html ER -
