What do autistic spectrum disorders tell us about typical psychological development? Francesca Happé, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at the Institute of Psychiatry (King's College London) famously devised the Strange Stories test in which she established that people with ASD had difficulty making sense of ambiguity, and of understanding that people don't always say what they mean.
