"Children with ADHD have been found to have a 7β12 point lower average full-scale intelligent quotient (FIQ) compared with controls. Furthermore, individuals with ADHD demonstrate reduced working memory capacity and poorer processing speed and reading comprehensionββThe relationship between autism and intelligence is, however, more complex. The majority of autistic individuals are intellectually impaired, although a few studies have shown areas of superior functioning compared with controls, particularly on non-verbal measures."
Hyperconnectivity in ASD was observed at the whole-brain and subsystems levels, across long- and short-range connections, and was associated with higher levels of fluctuations in regional brain signals. Brain hyperconnectivity predicted symptom severity in ASD, such that children with greater functional connectivity exhibited more severe social deficits.
