Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v26 n6 p585-95 Dec 1996
Seventeen patients with Asperger syndrome (AS) and a mean IQ of 97 were compared with a control group of 13 patients with normal intelligence or high-functioning autism. Results found that pedantic speech was common in the patients with AS and may help differentiate AS from high-functioning autism. (Author/CR)
