This raises some interesting questions-- I wonder than if this means Asperger's could at times have been erroneously diagnosed as GADD/social anxiety? How else does stress/anxiety affect patterns of cognition and social function? Would this mean that to the extent it encouraged narrow and driven focus and to the extent such a focus is beneficial, is anxiety/stress actually helpful to society? Does this explain (to some extent) success of societies with high-stress education systems? Interesting find.
