Autism, Intense Interests and Support in School: From Wasted Efforts to Shared Understandings

£0.00

Wood (2021)

This study looked at how well IQ reflects real-life skills in autistic children, with and without intellectual disabilities. It found that for those without intellectual disabilities, everyday skills were much lower than their IQ scores suggested, and this gap stayed large even with later diagnosis. The researchers argue that the term “high-functioning autism” is misleading and should no longer be used in research or clinical settings.
