The Amygdala Is Enlarged in Children But Not Adolescents with Autism; the Hippocampus Is Enlarged at All Ages (2004, background): “The distinction of Asperger syndrome (ASP) from high-functioning autism is controversial (Klin et al., 1995; Ozonoff et al., 2000; Howlin, 2003).”
Autism Spectrum Disorder and Specific Language Impairment: Overlaps in Syntactic Profiles (2016, background): “…SLI (Kjelgaard & Tager-Flusberg 2010; Roberts, Rice & Tager-Flusberg 2004; Tager-Flusberg 2006; Zebib et al. 2013), possibly due to comorbidity (Bishop 2010), or rather resemble nonspecific language impairment resulting from general cognitive ability (Tager-Flusberg et al. 1990; Howlin 2003).”
Psychophysiology of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. (2008, background): “Recent studies controlling for IQ have not produced a clear differentiation between HFA and AS on a wide variety of symptoms including social abilities (Starr, Szatmari, Bryson, & Zwaigenbaum, 2003), language ( Howlin, 2003 ) motor, visuospatial or executive functions (Miller & Ozonoff, 2000) and re”
Expressive prosody in children with autism spectrum conditions (2011, positive): “…are no etiologic differences between AS and HFA, but recent diagnostic criteria hold that they are distinguished by a history of clinically significant pre-school language delay, present in HFA but not in AS (as in, e.g. Cederlund, Hagberg, Billstedt, Gillberg, & Gillberg, 2008; Howlin, 2003).”
Private Speech and Executive Functioning among High-Functioning Children with Autistic Spectrum Disorders (2007, neutral): “Consistent with previous research that finds few differences between children with autism and Asperger’s in these areas (Howlin, 2003; Jarrold, Boucher, & Russell, 1997; Ozonoff, 1998; Schopler, Mesibov, & Kunce, 1998) we found minimal differences in speech and performance as a function of type of P”
Language Development in Autism (2016, background): “In adulthood, the two groups did not differ in either their expressive or receptive vocabulary (Howlin, 2003).”
Introducing MASC: A Movie for the Assessment of Social Cognition (2006, background): “Despite persisting debates as to whether Asperger syndrome is qualitatively different from a more highfunctioning form of autism (HFA; Howlin, 2003; Klin & Volkmar, 1997), most authors regard Asperger syndrome as belonging to the autism spectrum, based on the large amount of shared diagnostic…”
Theory of Mind Abilities and Deficits in Autism Spectrum Disorders (2014, background): “It often presents with comorbid intellectual disability and is associated with deficits across several domains such as language (Howlin, 2003), social cognition (Baron-Cohen, Leslie, & Frith, 1985), executive function (Hill, 2004), and weak central coherence (Frith, 1989).”
