Abstract
Children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder were matched with children with Dyslexia to determine differences in visual sustained attention, IQ, and working memory. Children with Autism performed worse on verbal tests of working memory and IQ than those with Dyslexia. Both groups demonstrated similar performance on the visual sustained attention task.
