We had children at around 30. Jane Street is a quantitative trading firm with a focus on technology and collaborative problem solving. Im really curious, how many people identify with this statement? I dont know. Silicon Valley's Safe Space - The New York Times Since the definition of autism (as noted by Scott and discussed elsewhere in the comments) is primarily symptomatic, that means you only get the diagnosis if you display symptomatic behaviors meeting a certain noticeable threshold. But many do it for positive outcomes versus negative pressure, which is how I interpreted your question. My personal bet would be that different sorts of mutations associated with autism could be slotted into abstract prior-mapping-affecting categories manifesting through tiny quirks of cellular chemistry, and some degree of interplay between them and those that affect general nervous tissue metabolism and anatomy might also be the case. Hence the need to go along with pointless social rituals. (Always Sunny parodied this phenomenon with Mac, who only works out his glamour muscles.). If you mean extraverted, no small number. Social rituals are incredibly important though, humans are social animals. This model predicts something I believe is true many low functioning autistic people have real talents lurking in there, it is just really hard for them or others to access those talents because of all the broken stuff. Yes. She is a university qualified computer systems engineer. Im skeptical of the extreme male brain hypothesis for autism. I dont think cystic fibrosis works that way. You dont need a tower-and-foundation model to explain how both higher than usual prevalence of intelligence-associated genes in autistic individuals and extremely intelligent non-autistic people. So the genes are a correlation but not a cause of the autism, which is due to factors incidentally related to the high IQ, for example the advanced age of the parents? MealSquares is a "nutritionally complete" food that contains a balanced diet worth of nutrients in a few tasty easily measurable units. Normal includes insecurities, anxieties, caring what other people think. You mentioned height, which I think is a good example too we have studies (possibly not good ones) showing that taller people have better outcomes, get treated nicer, are more attractive but people who get too tall have bad medical problems, shorter life expectancy. But the ability to notice patterns in the world, analyze phenomena and their causes/effects, understand highly complex and abstract concepts, and make connections between things all seem to be correlated with higher levels of social awareness and persuasive ability. People running an emulation of normal are usually not staggeringly intelligent. Shes a real handful to deal with and that deters quality men from being interested in her. I strongly doubt that. At the individual level things are generally way more complex than these symptom-based diagnoses and the key is to ask *why* the kid isnt mixing well socially, gets into fights / lashes out, or cant sit still rather than reify it as a brain dysfunction. however, ASD without these two confounders shows no correlation with IQ. It is often said that male IQ has the same mean as female IQ but greater variance, so you find more men in both tails of the IQ distribution. Naive, narcissistic, completely detached from human interaction. no IQb + hgl: very low IQ, non-autistic mental disorders. There are so many ways to be weird and out of touch with the people around you, related to very different sets of issues and characteristics. I could easily see someone unable to focus, stuck in a room banging their head just trying to make the noise go away. My experience watching a relative currently diagnosed with severe, non-verbal autism grow up is that his diagnosis is a catch-all for he doesnt seem capable of abstract thought but we have ruled out all the other, better-understood potential causes. No one can offer more than conjecture about the cause of his condition, and no one knows how to treat it (unless you listen to the vaccine-chelation charlatans the way that his father does) so why is the medical establishment making confident claims regarding the connection between his condition and high-functioning autism?
