Savant people are caused in two ways:

1. Most of autistic savants are somehow disabled at the birth. Many savants cant talk properly, or even dress themselves.

2. If normal person is hit in the head, or having a brain damage, he might wake up as a savant. These people are also disabled, or have deen intelectually set to the level of an eight-year old.

by the way, I'm not really an English speaker, so don't wonder if i wrote anything stupid.

What is the definition of 'autistic savant'?

First, I suggest reading "Born on a Blue day" by Daniel Tammet. The author is Autistic Savant and the book is about his experience with the syndrome. A definition from MedicineNet.com is: Autistic savant: A person with autism who is exceptionally gifted in a specialized field. That field may, for example, be mathematics. The autistic savant may be able to do rapid, complex mental calculations. Or the field may be music. The autistic savant may be able to perform a entire piece of music after hearing it only once. The term "autistic savant" has replaced the old term "idiot savant," which is perjorative and imprecise. A savant (from the French savoir, to know) is a sage, a learned person.


How many autistic savants are there in the world?

It is estimated that only about 1 in 10 individuals with autism may exhibit savant abilities, which translates to a small percentage of the overall autistic population. Given that approximately 1 in 54 individuals are diagnosed with autism, the number of autistic savants could be in the tens of thousands globally, but precise figures are not available.

How is Autism related to savant syndrome?

Autism and savant syndrome are related in that some individuals with autism may exhibit savant abilities, which are extraordinary skills or talents in specific areas, such as music, art, or mathematics. While not all individuals with autism are savants, a subset of those on the autism spectrum can display these exceptional capabilities alongside their developmental challenges. Savant syndrome can occur independently of autism, but the two can overlap, particularly in cases where the autistic individual possesses a unique talent. Overall, the relationship is complex and highlights the diverse manifestations of cognitive abilities within the autism spectrum.
