| J L McClellan. The basis of hyperspecificity in autism: a preliminary suggestion based on properties of neural nets. Journal of autism and developmental disorders. vol 30. issue 5. 2001-06-28. PMID:11098891. |
this article reviews a few key ideas about the representation of information in neural networks and uses these ideas to address one aspect of autism, namely, the apparent hyperspecificity that is often seen in autistic children's application of previously acquired information. |

| D M Bowler, J A Briskma. Photographic cues do not always facilitate performance on false belief tasks in children with autism. Journal of autism and developmental disorders. vol 30. issue 4. 2001-02-08. PMID:11039857. |
previous studies have indicated that a pictorial representation of a prior belief can help 3-year-old children (mitchell & lacohee, 1991) as well as children with autism (charman & lynggaard, 1998) to pass false belief tasks that used the deceptive box or "smarties" paradigm. |

| L Waterhouse, D Fein, C Modah. Neurofunctional mechanisms in autism. Psychological review. vol 103. issue 3. 1996-10-16. PMID:8759044. |
behavioral impairments in autism are theorized to result from abnormal neuronal organization in brain development generating 4 systemically related neurofunctional impairments: (a) canalesthesia, wherein abnormal hippocampal system function "canalizes" sensory records, disrupting integration of information; (b) impaired assignment of the affective significance of stimuli, wherein abnormal amygdaloid system function disrupts affect association; (c) asociality, wherein impaired oxytocin system function flattens social bonding and affiliativeness; and (d) extended selective attention, wherein abnormal organization of temporal and parietal polysensory regions yields aberrant overprocessing of primary representations. |
