Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies have shown that the superior temporal sulcus (STS) in the brain functions abnormally in adults and children with autism when they are processing social stimuli. The STS is located in the temporal lobe and is responsible for processing social information such as facial expressions, eye gaze, and body movements. Dysfunction in the STS may contribute to the social impairments seen in autism. The other options (A, C, and D) are not directly involved in social information processing in the brain.
