What evidence supports the validity of the autistic Neanderthal theory in understanding the cognitive abilities and social behaviors of ancient hominids?
The autistic Neanderthal theory suggests that Neanderthals may have displayed behaviors similar to those seen in individuals with autism. Evidence supporting this theory includes the discovery of genetic similarities between Neanderthals and modern humans with autism, as well as archaeological findings indicating that Neanderthals may have had advanced cognitive abilities and engaged in complex social behaviors. This theory provides a new perspective on the cognitive and social capabilities of ancient hominids.
If none of your family has autism how did you get it?
Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that can have a variety of genetic and environmental factors contributing to its development. It is not always necessary for other family members to have autism for someone to be diagnosed with it. It can arise from a combination of genetic predispositions and other factors, and each individual's experience with autism can be unique.
Can you provide an example of what you mean by "autistic rambling"?
"Autistic rambling" refers to long, detailed, and sometimes repetitive speech or writing that may lack a clear focus or structure. An example could be someone discussing their favorite topic in great depth without pausing for others to respond or losing track of the main point they were trying to make.
Can autism be overlooked as a child then be recognized in an adult?
Yes, as understanding of Autism changes diagnosis changes - people who are adults today may not have been recognized as being Autistic as children due to lack of awareness. I'll offer myself as an example: I'm diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and was clearly Autistic as a child: developmental delays, non-verbal, regular meltdowns, among other issues. In the 1980's Autism was still considered a 'boys disorder' and few people knew about Autism, thus I was not diagnosed and people didn't know what to make of my behavior. In the 1990's I had fewer issues with Autism, so although autism was better known my problems were not severe enough for people to have realized I was Autistic. In the late 1990's/early 2000's my school insisted I go to therapy due to my behavior, the therapists knew I was Autistic but didn't inform me or my parents, thus diagnosis wasn't made. I wasn't diagnosed until I was 28 years old, and that was only because I was working with disabled children at the time so I went looking for information and realized that I was Autistic.
Would an autistic person who is interested in parts of objects become obsessed with a kaleidoscope?
Not necessarily. The person with autism might be interested in the parts of only a certain category of objects. The person might be stressed by the colors and blending of colors in a kaleidoscope. In other words, there are reasons the person might not like a kaleidoscope at all. Each person is different.
