“Polyvagal Theory suggests that sensory trauma may thus be experienced in the autistic person’s body as fluctuating yet persistent SNS activation or fluctuating yet persistent PNS disconnection (dorsal vagus), or a combination of the two, with the range of accompanying physiological changes that each implies.”

“When a parent finds it difficult to connect with their autistic child and receives no, low or unexpected feedback, they may modify their style of interacting with the child and become more directive[ci][cii][ciii] or hyper-stimulating[civ]. In such a scenario, the parent’s vocal pitch may rise and their prosody alter, their facial expression may become exaggerated, they may enter further and more frequently into their child’s personal space and may become more physical, energetic and vocal in their interactions with the child. For an autistic infant experiencing sensory trauma, such modifications in parental interaction style, inspired by the parent’s desire to connect, may paradoxically make it even more difficult, if not impossible, for the infant to connect with their parent.”
