Recently, using eye-tracking, we found that toddlers with ASD as compared to typically developing and developmentally delayed peers, show diminished responses to a video of an actress emulating a prototypical bid for dyadic engagement and show limited attention to activities of others when viewing a naturalistic play scene. This decreased attention likely expresses not only the culmination of atypical experience-dependent knowledge regarding scenes and people, but also suggests future access to observational learning may be limited. Cascading deficits that may arise when children are deprived of this vital learning route. In this presentation I will introduce a few projects that uses interactive eye tracking as a first step towards the development of automated tools that can help toddlers and young children with atypical visual attention learn to attend to social information in a more typical fashion with new ways of interacting with their environment.
