Beschreibung
This comprehensive volume reviews current developments in our evolving knowledge of social attention and its processes. In doing so, it examines the brain-behavioral bases of social attention from diverse complementary fields, including disordered and healthy adult findings, infant and developmental studies and social neuroscience. The studies explored in this volume reflect the ongoing shift toward naturalistic, context-based experiments and integrative scientific approaches, and away from relying solely on standardized tasks in laboratory settings. In keeping with this proactive perspective, the authors pose critical questions throughout the book to point readers toward the potential next wave of research developments and interventions.
Included in the coverage:
- The development of social attention in human infants.
- Neural bases for social attention in healthy humans.
- Social attention, social presence, and the dual function of gaze.
- Early departures from normative processes of social engagement in infants with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
- Aberrant social attention and its underlying neural correlates in adults with ASD.
- The future of social attention research.

“The Many Faces of Social Attention: Behavioral and Neural Measures … provides a compilation of their theoretical formulations and empirical findings. … the reader who will invest the energy required to digest this book will be rewarded with new perspectives that will prove very valuable in determining ‘how we do business’ as researchers and practitioners.” (James P. Schmidt, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 61 (22), May, 2016)
