The aim of this study was to examine language processing in children with high-functioning autism (HFA) and Asperger\u2019s disorder (AD) using a task which taps lexical processing, a core language ability. Eleven individuals with HFA, 11 with AD and 11 typically developing (TD) individuals completed a masked priming task, a psycholinguistic paradigm that directly examines lexical processes. Within-group analyses revealed the AD and TD groups had intact lexical processing systems and orthographic processing of the written word. The outcomes for the HFA group were ambiguous, suggesting that their lexical processing system is either delayed or is structurally different. This suggests that fundamental differences in lexical processing exist between HFA and AD and remain evident later in development.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1362361310386501","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,2]],"date-time":"2011-03-02T03:10:06Z","timestamp":1299035406000},"page":"307-325","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Lexical processing in individuals with high-functioning autism and Asperger\u2019s disorder"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Samantha","family":"Speirs","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Monash University, Clayton,Victoria, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Greg","family":"Yelland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Monash University, Clayton,Victoria, Australia,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicole","family":"Rinehart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Monash University, Clayton,Victoria, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bruce","family":"Tonge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Monash University, Clayton, Victoria, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1348\/000712601162130"},{"key":"atypb2","volume-title":"Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV-TR, 4th revised ed)","author":"American Psychiatric Association","year":"2000"},{"key":"atypb3","volume-title":"Words in the Mind: An Introduction to the Mental Lexicon","author":"Atchison, J.","year":"1987"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.5040\/9781805014300","volume-title":"The Complete Guide to Asperger\u2019s Syndrome","author":"Attwood, T.","year":"2007"},{"key":"atypb5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0010-0277(86)90006-5"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0010-0277(87)90006-0"},{"key":"atypb7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4159\/harvard.9780674732469"},{"key":"atypb8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jecp.2007.01.006"},{"key":"atypb9","unstructured":"Castles, A., Davis, C. & Forster, K.I.
