Abstract in brief

  • Running is a popular physical activity among autistic adolescents, but there is little research on the dynamics of their lower extremity, particularly joint stiffness.
  • A study compared knee and ankle joint stiffness during running between 22 autistic adolescents and 17 non-autistic peers, revealing that autistic participants had significantly reduced joint stiffness and changes in joint moments during the absorption phase of running.
  • The findings suggest that these differences in stiffness might indicate reduced efficiency while running, highlighting the potential need for targeted interventions to improve running mechanics in autistic adolescents.
