Irish Society for Autism

My name is Emily Dillon and I am a PhD student in the School of Psychology in Trinity College, Dublin and I am interested in the language development of girls with autism. There is a large gender bias in autism and we hope by exploring the differences in language of girls and boys with autism we can better understand how autism expresses differently between genders. We also hope by looking at the language styles of family members we can see how family language traits may help in autism.
