Enhanced Perceptual Functioning in Autism: An Update, and Eight Principles of Autistic Perception
Laurent Mottron,Michelle Dawson,Isabelle Soulières,Bénédicte Hubert,Bénédicte Hubert,Jake Burack,Jake Burack +6 more
TL;DR: An “Enhanced Perceptual Functioning” model encompassing the main differences between autistic and non-autistic social andnon-social perceptual processing is proposed, which may explain the autistic perceptual endophenotype.

TL;DR: A linkage and association mapping study using half a million genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms in a common set of 1,031 multiplex autism families, implicating SEMA5A as an autism susceptibility gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced and diminished visuo-spatial information processing in autism depends on stimulus complexity.
TL;DR: The first demonstration of concurrent enhanced and decreased performance in autism on the same visuo-spatial static task is presented, wherein the only factor dichotomizing performance was the neural complexity required to discriminate grating orientation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced Pitch Sensitivity in Individuals with Autism: A Signal Detection Analysis
TL;DR: It is confirmed that pitch processing is enhanced in high-functioning autism and as predicted by the enhanced perceptual functioning model for peaks of ability in autism, autistic individuals outperform typically developing population in a variety of low-level perceptual tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Level and Nature of Autistic Intelligence
TL;DR: Assessment of autistic children on the preeminent test of fluid intelligence, Raven's Progressive Matrices, concludes that intelligence has been underestimated in autistics.
