A critical determinant of social functioning is an individual\u2019s ability to recognize when social cues, such as eye gaze, are meant for them. Emerging computational modeling data in psychosis suggest that altered gaze perception stems from deficits in evidence accumulation \u2013 the process of gathering and integrating information \u2013 when processing social cues. We investigated whether aberrant evidence accumulation during gaze perception is associated with social functioning or, as a secondary aim, with psychopathology in a transdiagnostic sample with varying levels of psychotic, socially anxious, or autistic characteristics.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S003329172610573X_sec2\" sec-type=\"methods\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We examined gaze perception in 111 individuals (aged 14\u201330) with varying levels of social dysfunction, psychosis proneness, social anxiety, and autistic traits. Drift diffusion models (DDM) characterized key processes driving perceptual judgements in a self-referential gaze perception task, including the efficiency of evidence accumulation. We tested whether evidence accumulation was associated with social functioning, social cognition, and these different psychopathology dimensions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S003329172610573X_sec3\" sec-type=\"results\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Impaired evidence accumulation during gaze perception showed strong associations with impaired social cognition and modest associations with diminished social functioning and elevated psychosis and social anxiety symptoms.
