Word Fluency in High-Functioning Autistic Children.
Boucher, Jill
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v18 n4 p637-45 Dec 1988
Comparison of word fluency with seven high-functioning children with autism (ages 11-15) and controls of similar age and vocabulary level found that both groups performed equally well when generating words in response to familiar category cues, but autistic children performed significantly less well than controls when generating miscellaneous words.
