Many parents of children with autism observe that their children react particularly sensitively to visual stimuli. They sometimes find the smallest pebbles or stand fascinated in front of colorful lights. How can such peculiarities of perception be explained, and what do they mean for the support of autistic individuals? This book systematically summarizes the scientific knowledge regarding visual perception in people with autism. It investigates whether children with autism are more oriented towards visual stimuli such as details and color than to the meaning of their environment. This insight into the perception of individuals with autism allows for a better understanding of autistic behavioral anomalies and highlights ways to provide support.
