- AHigh-end
- BLow-end
16Kanner's autism is:
- AOn the low-end, and a severe variation
- BOn the high-end, and a lighter variation
- CModerate, and features a multitude of variations
17PDD-NOS is:
- ASevere, and on the low-end of the spectrum

- BNo
22A Theory of Mind deficit refers to:
- AA lack of insight or understanding of mental states

- BA lack of ability to see higher-order relations
24Do children with autism (CWAs) understand false belief?
- AYes, but it takes a lot longer

- AYes, they do
- BNo, because they still do not understand higher-order relations

- AYes
- BNo
27Research (Bowler, 1992; Bruner & Feldman, 1991; Happé, 1995) suggests that success on verbal false belief tasks for CWAs is:

- BAre at the same level
29________ development of central coherence is drawing together diverse information to construct higher-level meaning.

- BPreoccupied with trying to gain others' attention
33Weak central coherence has advantages when:
- AOnly individual parts are required, rather than wholes
