Face perception in high-functioning autistic adults: evidence for superior processing of face parts, not for a configural face-processing deficit.

abstract：:Mental flexibility is required to track and systematically alternate between 2 response sets. In this study, 719 individuals, 20 to 89 years old, engaged in 3 different tasks that required verbal and nonverbal cognitive switching. Of importance, each task allowed for independent measurement of component skills that ar...
