Association Between Joint Attention and Autism Traits in Young Adults: A Gaze-Contingent Eye-Tracking Study.
Article in Research in autism, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The Interactive Eye Tracking for Joint Attention (IET-JA), a child-focused battery consisting of video-format gaze-contingent eye-tracking tasks featuring a human communication partner, was developed to address gaps in eye-tracking research on JA in autistic children. Although JA research has often concentrated on younger populations due to its early developmental significance, studies indicate that JA difficulties associated with autism persist into adulthood, highlighting the value of examining these traits later in life. Thus, this study adapted the IET-JA for adolescents and adults (IET-JA-A) by incorporating additional attentional demands to introduce controlled attentional variations and explore whether these interactive eye-tracking measures of JA associate with autism traits in adulthood. Methods: A total of 81 young adults ( Results: The IET-JA-A measures of responding to joint attention and initiating joint attention to comment/reference (protodeclarative) were associated with autism traits, while the IET-JA-A measures of initiating joint attention to request (protoimperative) were not associated with autism traits. Conclusions: Findings advance our understanding of JA linked with autism traits in adulthood and showcase the feasibility of interactive eye-tracking methodologies in JA research. Limitations and implications for research are discussed.
