[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are most kids with Asperger's mainstreamed? What differentiates those who are mainstreamed versus those who are not? [b]I assume some of them are profoundly gifted [/b]so they may do better in a gifted program that does or does not also cater to kids with SN but what about those with average cognitive abilities? Where do they end up? [/quote] Well you would assume wrong. For people with autism, "About 40 percent have average to above average intellectual abilities..." http://www.autismspeaks.org/what-autism Which is keeping with the general population... http://www.edublox.com/iq-test/iq04.htm Giftedness is more than just IQ in any case.[/quote]
