| مستخلص: | Background: Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of video conferencing (VC) has become an integral part of everyday life. Its implementations range from staying in touch with loved-ones, to work-related meetings, remote learning, and e-health services. While VC appears a convenient alternative to meeting face-to-face for many, it may be challenging for others. VC is known to induce symptoms of mental and physical exhaustion. One potential factor that may contribute to these symptoms, collectively known as Zoom-fatigue, is that compared to face-to-face meetings, VC requires increased cognitive and sensory demands, which in turn may lead to sensory overload. The extent to which Zoom fatigue is experienced varies from person to person, but individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in particular may be more susceptible to Zoom fatigue. The socio-communicative symptoms associated with ASD include atypical eye gaze patterns, ineffective use of nonverbal cues, and alterations in sensory processing, including hyper- and hyposensitivity to sensory stimulation. All of these symptoms may pose as potential risk factors for zoom-fatigue. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the relationship between symptoms of Zoom-fatigue, autistic traits and sensory sensitivity. Methods: A large online survey was conducted among older adolescents and young adults with typical development and individuals in the same age range with a clinical diagnosis of ASD. Zoom fatigue was measured using the recently developed Zoom Exhaustion & Fatigue (ZEF) scale. Autistic traits were measured using the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ), and sensory sensitivity was measured using the Glasgow Sensory Questionnaire (GSQ). Bivariate and partial correlation coefficients were calculated to determine the relationships between these outcome measures. Results: Data collection is ongoing and will be completed by February |
