Perceiver ratings were also utilized to calculate a "readability" score (how easy it was to perceive the participants emotional and affective states), and it was found that over the course of two studies, the readability score correlated moderately to strongly (r = 0.58 for the first study and  0.63 for the second) with the negative or positive evaluations of the target's characteristics. Thus the negative perceptions of autistic individuals are possibly mediated by the observers difficulty in reading their emotions or intentions. The researchers stated this could either be because this unreadability was associated with perceptions of lower trustworthiness or simply because this unreadability is associated with behaving in a manner that is perceived as eccentric or "out of the ordinary", which therefore results in the greater negative perceptions of them.

Trevisan et al. (2018) conducted a meta analysis on facial expressiveness in autists. They found autists have little difficulties producing simple expressions such as smiles, frowns and expressions of disgusts. But autists tend to have inappropriate expressions at times and do not copy other's facial expressions subconsciously, giving the impression of being absent-minded. They also have more difficulties to spontaneously produce facial expressions and less difficulties when they are prompted to produce a particular facial expression. High IQ autists can compensate for their lack of facial expressiveness to some extent, especially at higher age.
