Why is a study of 67 people not serious? If their sampling is solid it should be more than enough.

- graphe 3y agoIt's a survey. Ever took one?
- explorigin 3y agoASD is very dynamic. It is not linear spectrum, think of it more like a polar graph. I would think 67 may be enough people to get an idea for one "hallmark" but certainly not all of them as a comprehension.
- samplatt 3y agoMany ASD-related surveys are not confirmed-diagnosed either, but only self-reporting as ASD. I mean I get it, it'd be a colossal pain to verify all that medical data, but it also makes for bad science.

- Name_Chawps 3y agoIf you self report as autistic, you're probably autistic. Especially because, in practice, an autistic person is defined as someone who self-reports autistic traits to a health care provider.
- tysam_and 3y agoSelf reporting autism can be surprisingly accurate.
