| I've taken seven WAIS tests in my life and the discrepancy between VIQ and PIQ has always been at least 19 points. The largest gap between my scores was obtained on the most recent WAIS I took in June. My POI was 79 (borderline range) and my VCI was 136 (superior range.) That's a discrepancy of 57 ... |

| it all depends on what standards you impose on the creature.. for example, other animals do just fine without being able to talk or understand language, so why do we consider a homo sapiens who can't do these things more defective then an animal who has the same "defect" absolutely speaking? i have ... |

| There is another thing.. i have recently come to doubt the notion that autistics have a deficit in global processing or region interconnectivity.. nothing in the neurobiology suggests that there is a deficit in global connectivity, in fact there is too much connectivity!

| Being based on signaling doesn't have to contradict what you said about genetic wiring.. it is just that the system is flexible enough to handle overgrowth because the right regions are still interconnected, it's just that there is more white matter tracts running between the regions and it is my ow... |

| Callista, i agree completely with that assesment, i have expressed the same views in the past. natural selection is not perfect, some small variations can add up in one person and be deleterious (as in lowering reproductive & survival fitness, not an objective measure of the phenotype itself).

| The overgrowth is caused by overprofileration of neurons during corticogenesis. Haven't you read this paper? http://archneur.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/full/64/7/945 I don't think your theory is quite right.. the wiring of the brain is based on signaling which can adapt surely to differences in how th... |

I don't see how anyone in this thread would be able to help me, but i'm giving it a shot anyways. How can i avoid becoming a hopeless alcoholic? |
