Event-related potential (ERP) Studies of Autism
Howard Ring, Owen Churches, Cara Damiano, Marie Gomot, Ilaria Minio Paluello, Sally Wheelwright, Mark Johnson, Simon Baron-Cohen

We are testing basic aspects of perception, such as face processing, temporal binding, change detection (in vision and hearing), and sequencing, whilst measuring event related potentials (ERP). Child-friendly ERP measurement takes place at Birkbeck College London under the direction of Mark Johnson, whilst adult ERPs are measured in the ARC in Cambridge.
