Abstract

Data from the MBTI was collected from 140 college-aged adults with ASD, to assess within-group variation as well comparisons with a neurotypical population. It was found that ASD adults endorse higher levels of introversion and sensing, and tend to exhibit certain personality types more often than the general population.
