Trundle, G., Jones, K. A., Ropar, D., & Egan, V. (2023). The forensic implications of camouflaging: a study into victimisation and offending associated with autism and pathological demand avoidance. Advances in Autism, 9(2), 116-131. https://doi.org/10.1108/aia-02-2022-0006

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the influence of social camouflaging on victimisation and offending in relation to autism and pathological demand avoidance (PDA) traits. Camouflaging aims to overcome or conceal difficulties in social and comm...

Heart Rate Variability in Children and Adolescents with Autism, ADHD and Co-occurring Autism and ADHD, During Passive and Active Experimental Conditions (2021)
Journal Article
Bellato, A., Arora, I., Kochhar, P., Ropar, D., Hollis, C., & Groom, M. J. (2022). Heart Rate Variability in Children and Adolescents with Autism, ADHD and Co-occurring Autism and ADHD, During Passive and Active Experimental Conditions. Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52, 4679-4691. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-021-05244-w

Despite overlaps in clinical symptomatology, autism and ADHD may be associated with opposite autonomic arousal profiles which might partly explain altered cognitive and global functioning. We investigated autonomic arousal in 106 children/adolescents...

What is the Effect of Stimulus Complexity on Attention to Repeating and Changing Information in Autism? (2021)
Journal Article
Arora, I., Bellato, A., Gliga, T., Ropar, D., Kochhar, P., Hollis, C., & Groom, M. (2022). What is the Effect of Stimulus Complexity on Attention to Repeating and Changing Information in Autism?. Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52(2), 600–616. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-021-04961-6

Slower habituation to repeating stimuli characterises Autism, but it is not known whether this is driven by difficulties with information processing or an attentional bias towards sameness. We conducted eye-tracking and presented looming geometrical... Read More about What is the Effect of Stimulus Complexity on Attention to Repeating and Changing Information in Autism?.

Is autonomic function during resting-state atypical in Autism: A systematic review of evidence (2021)
Journal Article
Arora, I., Bellato, A., Ropar, D., Hollis, C., & Groom, M. (2021). Is autonomic function during resting-state atypical in Autism: A systematic review of evidence. Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 125, 417-441. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neubiorev.2021.02.041

Background: Theories of differences in resting-state arousal in autistic individuals are influential. Differences in arousal during resting-state would impact engagement and adaptation to the environment, having a cascading effect on development of a...
