Capacity of visual short-term memory after unilateral frontal or anterior temporal-lobe resection.

abstract：:Conversation is a primary area of difficulty for individuals with high-functioning autism (HFA) although they have unimpaired formal language abilities. This likely stems from the unstructured nature of face-to-face conversation as well as the need to coordinate other modes of communication (e.g. eye gaze) with speech...
