Boser, Katharina; Higgins, Susannah; Fetherston, Anne; Preissler, Melissa Allen; Gordon, Barry
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v32 n6 p563-82 Dec 2002
A non-verbal 12-year-old boy with low functioning autism was tested on an auditory word-to-picture selection task. Picture foils were chosen to have visual features, semantic features, both, or neither in common with the correct answer. Errors were made more often to semantically than to visually related items.
