Excited to see our group rapport paper published in Autism: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/.... Thanks to those involved, Noah Sasson , Dr Catherine Crompton, Sue Fletcher-Watson, Dani_Ropar, Michelle Dodd, and others! We explored whether rapport varies across autistic, non-autistic, and mixed groups,

Base R (cringe) vs. Tidyverse (based)

In autistic vs non-autistic vs mixed pairs, not finding differences in social motor synchrony (SMS)? journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13… contrary to the authors' hypothesis that "SMS will be significantly higher in non-autistic dyads than those containing at least one autistic individual"
