Processing information and information overload
People with autism have a greater ability to process information | Wellcome Trust
Long story short: Autistic people seem to overload because they are actually processing more information. |
Re: Processing information and information overload
"Autism spectrum disorders" covers a really wide spectrum from "he's kinda withdrawn" all the way to "little billy might never learn to read". So I'm not convinced it's all the same here.
For the group they're testing though -- that's interesting. Maybe their mental filters don't work quite the same way. |

Carly Fleischmann is a pretty famous severely autistic girl. She's non-verbal, but when she was 11 years old, she started typing.
