Diagnostic Criteria for Autism - The Concept of Sensitivity and Specificity

The diagnostic criteria for autism is highly specific, meaning it does a really good job at excluding people who are not artistic. The sensitivity, if you are coming at it from an understanding of the underlying constructs, i feel that it's also quite sensitive. So extending on from this kind of sensitivity specificity framework, it's also important to flag that there are a lot of things that people talk about when they're talking about 'artistic neurotype' But their kind of generalizations, theyre things that we usually see.
