NPR Article about Autism and Motion Perception
One of my new fascinations is the idea of Neuro Diversity, which basically states that the idea of categorizing brain as normal and abnormal is limiting. Neuro Diversity sets forth that there are many brains, and each are better at some tasks, worse at others. This article from NPR about Autism and perception of motion fits quite nicely into this kind of thinking. http://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2013/05/09/182717089/kids-with-autism-quick-to-detect-motion
