I, You, Me, and Autism: An Experimental Study.
Lee, Anthony; And Others
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v24 n2 p155-76 Apr 1994
Comparison of the performance of 25 subjects with autism and 25 nonautistic subjects with mental retardation found all subjects able to comprehend the personal pronouns "I,""you," and "me." However, autistic subjects were less likely to employ the pronoun "me" in a visual perspective-taking task and to say "you" to refer to the experimenter. (Author/DB)
