避免眼神接触的倾向是自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的早期指标，并且眼神接触的困难通常会持续整个生命周期。目光接触困难可能是ASD患者社会认知缺陷的基础，并可能造成重大的社会和职业障碍。因此，这一主题得到了大量的研究和临床关注。在这项研究中，我们使用定性的方法来分析自我报告的经验与眼睛接触所描述的青少年和成人与自我宣称的ASD。结果表明，自我宣称ASD诊断的人在进行眼神交流时会经历不良的情绪和生理反应，被侵犯的感觉和感官超负荷，此外还难以理解社会细微差别，以及难以接收和发送非语言信息。一些数据支持现有的mindblindness框架，以及眼睛接触的过度唤醒或低唤醒理论，但我们也提出了现有框架无法解释的新发现。此外，我们强调了自我宣称的ASD患者设计的创新策略，以克服或科普他们的目光接触困难。
A tendency to avoid eye contact is an early indicator of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and difficulties with eye contact often persist throughout the lifespan. Eye contact difficulties may underlie social cognitive deficits in ASD, and can create significant social and occupational barriers. Thus, this topic has received substantial research and clinical attention. In this study, we used qualitative methods to analyze self-reported experiences with eye contact as described by teens and adults with self-declared ASD. Results suggest people with a self- declared ASD diagnosis experience adverse emotional and physiological reactions, feelings of being invaded, and sensory overload while making eye contact, in addition to difficulties understanding social nuances, and difficulties receiving and sending nonverbal information. Some data support existing mindblindness frameworks, and hyperarousal or hypoarousal theories of eye contact, but we also present novel findings unaccounted for by existing frameworks. Additionally, we highlight innovative strategies people with self-declared ASD have devised to overcome or cope with their eye contact difficulties.
