		The Autism Research Centre (ARC), University of Cambridge, will receive £461,420 in funding to investigate whether earlier identification, resulting in earlier treatment, improves the prognosis of an autistic child.
		The aim is to ascertain the value of the screening instrument as a cost-effective, easy-to-use tool for early identification of autism spectrum conditions, and to test for direct empirical evidence of the effectiveness of early intervention.
		Autism is thought to be a spectrum of neurodevelopmental conditions, characterised by difficulties in the development of social relationships and communication skills, the presence of unusually strong narrow interests, and repetitive behaviour.

	Edge: THE ASSORTATIVE MATING THEORY: A Talk with Simon Baron-Cohen
		Simon Baron-Cohen is Professor of Developmental Psychopathology and Director of the Autism Research Centre at Cambridge University.
		As autism can be characterized by the combination of two extremes — a lack of attention to social cues and a focus on laws and rules — then it follows that, should there be genes for systematizing, two systemizers have a higher chance of producing an autistic child.
		More research should examine the extent to which the relationship between testosterone and cognitive performance is actually modulated by a third variable, having to do with dispositional factors such as confidence and competitiveness, that are more closely associated with mating effort.

	Research \| The Autism Centre \| Sheffield Hallam University
		Utilising a more democratic process of ‘inclusive' research methodology led to the findings that young people with a label of ‘autism' are disabled by ‘barriers' within wider society rather than by their perceived ‘impairments'.
		To advance the continuation of participation in research, this research study calls for a ‘paradigm shift' in research methodology, to move away from ‘positivist' research methodologies to advancing an ‘emancipatory disability research' agenda.
		This research also calls for the inclusion of people with a label of ‘autism' to become engaged in the wider ‘social model of disability' debate and to become included as part of the wider disabled people's movement.
