Presumably, if communicating individuals share a motor repertoire, at the neural level the same representations are activated in actor and observer, allowing them to interpret each other's actions and the communicative intent behind those actions.
A repeated-measures ANOVA with condition (communicative vs. individual) as within-subjects factor revealed a significant effect of condition (F 1,22) = 9.61; p = .005), with a higher sensitivity for the communicative condition compared to the individual condition.
In contrast, no difference between the communicative and individual conditions was found for the action 'Pick it up' (see Figure 1 and 3), consisting of a pointing gesture toward the ground, close to agent B's foot.

These results suggest that PECS, in combination with some minor adaptations, may be an effective communicative alternative for individuals who are deafblind and have learning impairments.
We consider a simple computational model of the evolution of a quantitative trait and its phenotypic plasticity based on directional and positive frequency-dependent selection in order to explore whether and how leaning might facilitate evolution under the dynamics that arise from communicative interactions among individuals.
Our results suggest that gaze directed toward the self does not convey the same communicative salience in individuals with ASC as it does in typical controls.
