Neuropsychological Divergence of High-Level Autism and Severe Dyslexia.
Rumsey, Judith M.; Hamburger, Susan D.
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v20 n2 p155-68 Jun 1990
To determine variations in cognitive characteristics, 10 nonretarded men with infantile autism, residual state, were compared with 15 severely dyslexic men and 25 controls on a neuropsychological test battery. The dyslexics showed a reduced digit span and the autistic group exhibited impaired problem-solving skills. (Author/JDD)
