Abstract(in English) Milne et al. indicated that individuals with high-functioning autism had a weak information system of magnocellular pathway, in comparison with typically developing individualsls. If autism has an aspect of spectrum, individuals with broader phenotype without diagnosis of autism may have a visual-processing characteristic similar to autism. This study examined the scores of autism-spectrum quotient (AQ) and social skills, and motion-coherence thresholds in typically developing adults. The results indicated that the scores of AQ and social skills correlated with the motion-coherence thresholds.
