Autistic brains exhibit structural and functional differences compared to non-autistic brains
the verdict
SUPPORTED
the evidence backs this
confidence 82/100
Neuroimaging research consistently demonstrates that autistic brains exhibit distinct structural and functional differences, including alterations in gray matter, white matter, and neural network connectivity compared to non-autistic brains.
