Neural Mechanisms for Social Interactions and Eye Contact in ASD

We are seeking adults aged 18-40 with either a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder or typically developed adults. The study will use a method called Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), which involves wearing a specialized cap to measure brain responses while interacting with another person. Participating in the study involves talking with members of the team, filling out forms, and completing a 40 minute fNIRS task.

Participants will be compensated $50.
