Motor signatures in autism spectrum disorder: the importance of variability.

Abstract
In a recent study, Wang et al. (J Neurophysiol 113: 1989-2001, 2015) used a precision grip force control task to unveil the contribution of feedforward and feedback mechanisms to sensorimotor dysfunction in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Impairment of both motor control mechanisms was observed, along with significant variability in the motor response. In this Neuro Forum article we discuss these findings within the conceptual framework of the grasping circuit and within the broader context of clinical and research applications based on motor behavior.
