Abstract Summary
Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have been shown to exhibit gait abnormalities when compared to children with typical development (TD). Despite this phenomenon, few discernible gait patterns have been revealed among children with ASD. Therefore, no generalized gait characteristics have been established for this population. The purpose of this study was to quantify spatio-temporal (ST) parameter variability during walking in children with ASD to reveal potential patterns unique to the population. Findings revealed that children with ASD did not exhibit large differences gait variability when compared to the TD group.
