Gaze behavior is one of man's most important and frequently used signalling devices. Observation of autistic children at the Park Hospital for Children in Oxford revealed that gaze aversion also appears to have a signalling function, similar to that of “appeasement postures” in certain animals, which serves to inhibit aggression on the part of others. The paper presents an investigation of the social encounters of autistic children, using film records of the children's behavior to illustrate the authors' findings.
