Such delay may sometimes accompany deficits which can have a long‐term impact on reading comprehension. It is frequently reported that autistic children exhibit significant difficulties in pragmatics, which is the ...

Atypical Scene‐Selectivity in the Retrosplenial Complex in Individuals With Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A small behavioral literature on individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has shown that they can be impaired when navigating using map‐based strategies (i.e., memory‐guided navigation), but not during visually‐guided navigation. Meanwhile, there is neuroimaging evidence in typically developing (TD) individuals demonstrating that the ...

An Autistic “Linguatype”? Neologisms, New Words, and New Insights

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this commentary, we present new ideas about autistic neologisms. This essay has two primary goals. First, we argue that an autistic predilection to form neologisms generates intriguing new hypotheses about language in autism, including the possibility that a tendency to use neologisms could be a featural element of an autistic “linguatype” (

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation of the Temporoparietal Junction in Autism Spectrum Disorder: Results of a Phase‐IIa Randomized, Double‐Blind, Sham‐Controlled Feasibility Study

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Activation of the temporoparietal junction (TPJ) is reduced in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) during social cognitive tasks. Therefore, anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the TPJ may enhance social cognitive abilities in autistic individuals. In a multicenter, randomized, sham‐controlled, double‐blind parallel‐group Phase‐
