The study investigated perceptual preferences of five autistic children (mean age 10.6 years). Results indicated a weak (not statistically significant) preference for auditory musical stimuli over visual stimuli. Autistic children spent significantly more time than did normals with the musical stimulus. (Author/DB)

Subjects needed an amount of time to recognize the faces that almost equaled the time they needed to recognize abstract patterns that were difficult to distinguish. (Contains references.)…
