Abstract

Autism has been described as a neural deficit in prediction, people with autism manifest low perceptual construal are impaired at traversing psychological distances, and Gilead et al.’s hierarchy from iconic to multimodal to fully abstract, socially communicated representations is exactly the hierarchy of representational impairment in autism, making autism a natural behavioural and neurophysiological test case for the prediction-abstraction relationship.
