Correlational analysis in study two testing positive correlations between overall entropy and AQ-Child subscales: the correlation was "only observed with AQ Social Skills", printed effect size r(42) = 0.36, p = 0.009.

"it was only observed with AQ Social Skills, r(42) = 0.36, p = 0.009, 95% CI = [0.07, 0.59], but not other AQ subscales"

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Learning Disabilities and Developmental Differences — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes

Related Claims¶

• Children with ASD show lower eye movement consistency than age- and IQ-matched typically developing children, with no difference in eye movement pattern — related
• Children's eye movement consistency is associated with selective attention and executive function, whereas eye movement pattern relates to working memory — related
