Description
Joana Portolese and co-authors present a 2024 model that scores each autistic person against a reference group of autistic peers. Autism spans a wide range of traits, and care needs a way to place one person on that map. Diagnosis leans on two behavior axes plus support levels, yet tongue skill, IQ, and side conditions also shape each case.
The authors join measures of trait spread into axes, then score a person by distance from the norm group. Such a score could compare people, test how even a subgroup is, and track one person's path over time. Past subgroup hunts split people by genes or clinic traits but could not grade a solo case. The model aims to fill that gap.
