What makes us social? Autism, mentalising, and the need for new labels
Manage episode 428535995 series 2889048
How we understand autism has changed greatly over time. In this talk, Uta Frith FBA discusses developments in the scientific study of autism and its re-evaluation from a rarely diagnosed disorder to being conceptualised as a spectrum of neurodiversity. Autism can now be explored in relation to the mentalising system and other internal mechanisms that make us social.
Speaker: Professor Uta Frith, developmental psychologist and Emeritus Professor of Cognitive Development, University College London
