Unraveling the developmental dynamic of visual exploration of social interactions in autism.

Atypical deployment of social gaze is present early on in toddlers with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Yet, studies characterizing the developmental dynamic behind it are scarce. Here, we used a data-driven method to delineate the developmental change in visual exploration of social interaction over childhood years in autism. Longitudinal eye-tracking data were acquired as children with ASD and their typically developing (TD) peers freely explored a short cartoon movie. We found divergent moment-to-moment gaze patterns in children with ASD compared to their TD peers. This divergence was particularly evident in sequences that displayed social interactions between characters and even more so in children with lower developmental and functional levels. The basic visual properties of the animated scene did not account for the enhanced divergence. Over childhood years, these differences dramatically increased to become more idiosyncratic. These findings suggest that social attention should be targeted early in clinical treatments.

Hippocampal-cortical interactions during event boundaries support retention of complex narrative events

According to most memory theories, encoding involves continuous communication between the hippocampus and neocortex, but recent work has shown that key moments at the end of an event, called event boundaries, may be especially critical for memory formation. We sought to determine how communication between the hippocampus and neocortical regions during the encoding of naturalistic events related to subsequent retrieval of those events and whether this was particularly important at event boundaries. Participants encoded and recalled two cartoon movies during fMRI scanning. Higher functional connectivity between the hippocampus and the posterior medial network (PMN) at an event's offset is related to the subsequent successful recall of that event. Furthermore, hippocampal-PMN offset connectivity also predicted the amount of detail retrieved after a 2-day delay. These data demonstrate that the relationship between memory encoding and hippocampal-neocortical interaction is dynamic and biased toward boundaries.

The main subject of the study is the analysis of the content of the cartoon movie Rafadan Tayfa in terms of values education in the context of justice, truthfulness, tolerance, compassion, industriousness, patience, respect, helpfulness, empathy, and greetings. The study is based on the root values determined by the Ministry of National Education. Values are an essential element that affects first one's behavior and then society. Children learn these values in many different ways. Especially television, one of the digital age products, is a communication tool that plays a significant role in value transfer with the programs it contains. This study is essential in answering how value education can be given in the digital age, especially by using television as a tool. In addition, this study is critical in revealing how and to what extent the cartoons broadcasted on children's channels that children can easily access address values. Document analysis technique, which is one of the qualitative research techniques, was used in the study. In our study, we tried to examine the root values in the first ten episodes of the cartoon Rafadan Tayfa broadcast in Turkey. As a result of the research, it was determined that the values of benevolence with the children always helping each other and the elders of the neighborhood, compassion with the behavior of the neighborhood residents to the dog Yumağ and other animals, respect for nature with the tradition of planting trees, respect for elders with the events they experienced with Uncle Basri, love for the little ones with Uncle Basri's behavior towards children, and unity and solidarity with their help to Uncle Nuri, the grocer. Each episode of the cartoon about Turkish neighborhood culture examined a different value around a different event, and the values were tried to be transferred to children appropriately. In particular, values such as benevolence, generosity, unity, respect for elders, and protection of the little ones were emphasized. It has been revealed that the cartoon is a good example of permanent teaching in the digital age in line with the principle of vitality. In our opinion, the cartoon, the subject of our research, has successfully transferred values and has been able to transfer the targeted gains to children appropriately. Our study has revealed that value education in the digital age can be realized through many different channels and other methods.

Individual differences in time-varying and stationary brain connectivity during movie watching from childhood to early adulthood: Age, sex, and behavioral associations

Spatially remote brain regions exhibit dynamic functional interactions across various task conditions. While time-varying functional connectivity during movie watching shows sensitivity to movie content, stationary functional connectivity remains relatively stable across videos. These findings suggest that dynamic and stationary functional interactions may represent different aspects of brain function. However, the relationship between individual differences in time-varying and stationary connectivity and behavioral phenotypes remains elusive. To address this gap, we analyzed an open-access functional MRI dataset comprising participants aged 5–22 years, who watched two cartoon movie clips. We calculated regional brain activity, time-varying connectivity, and stationary connectivity, examining associations with age, sex, and behavioral assessments. Model comparison revealed that time-varying connectivity was more sensitive to age and sex effects compared with stationary connectivity. The preferred age models exhibited quadratic log age or quadratic age effects, indicative of inverted-U shaped developmental patterns. In addition, females showed higher consistency in regional brain activity and time-varying connectivity than males. However, in terms of behavioral predictions, only stationary connectivity demonstrated the ability to predict full-scale intelligence quotient. These findings suggest that individual differences in time-varying and stationary connectivity may capture distinct aspects of behavioral phenotypes.
