Abstract
Autism is a neuro developmental disorder. Social communication deficiency is one of the core features of the syndrome. Individuals with autism spectrum disorder vary in their ability considerably. Despite being of normal or above normal intelligence those with higher functioning autism may present with varying degree of deficits in social communication. Few studies have considered structural abnormalities with respect to brain functioning. This article examines evidence in literature for pragmatic language deficits, origins, assessments and treatments among adolescents and adults with higher functioning autism or Asperger’s syndrome.
