quote [ Don’t assume that a non-speaking autistic who doesn’t react to your presence in the room is unaware of the conversation.
Don’t assume that someone is not really autistic just because they make eye contact with you and can chat about the weather. Don’t assume that a fluently-talkative autistic person is capable of processing what you have just said to them. ] That's a cool explanation – good source.

Gradient and spectrum are synonymous in some contexts, so this "distinction" is more confusing than helpful. I see she's not the only one to use this terminology, too.
The rainbow analogy is okay, but they could pick something better. It's a collection of spectrums (or gradients, or ranges, or whatever similar term you want to use). Heck, a bar graph (especially with clear separation between bars) might be a better visual aid. Still, an informative article. Thanks. |
