Neuroscientists and other experts have identified extraordinary, specific skills and abilities exhibited by some people with autism spectrum disorder.
producers introduced Daniel Tammet, a young British savant with tremendous cognitive skills. The producers tested his abilities, and one challenge required Tammet to learn Icelandic in less than a week.Tammet wrote how he worked with a dictionary, flashcards and then eventually a tutor. He instantly memorized words and quickly recognized grammar rules and sentence structure. By the end of the week, Tammet proved his fluency in an interview on an Icelandic news show.
The researchers analyzed the participants’ abilities and they also interviewed parents to understand how they described the skills in their children. The study found that about a third of the male participants, and 19 percent of the female participants demonstrated savant-level or exceptional abilities in a specific area.
