[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These are not new categories of autism. They looked at non-core features of autism as currently diagnosed and grouped them. In the same way you wouldn’t say there are “types of depression” based on non-core criteria. Like, you could take all the people diagnosed with depression and group them based on IQ, extroversion/introversion, height, weight, etc etc. Unless you have a theory about why these grouping criteria are causal or relate to the *core symptoms* of the dx, this is a pretty useless activity. [/quote] didn’t the study find that these different groups correlated with different genetic markers?[/quote]
