Cover Story: A review article critiques the validity and feasibility of “profound autism” and subtypes of autism. It also critiques functioning labels: 1) developmental gains (“profound autism” has less reliability than autism), 2) within-person variability (functioning fluctuations), 3) uneven skills, 4) social context, and 5) need for support. It addresses competencies in non-speaking autistics, who need i) responsive communication from social partners; ii) educational inclusion (benefits not affected by variables such as IQ); iii) augmentative and alternative communication; and iv) untimed, adapted strength-based nonverbal IQ testing. The article calls for a) recognizing autistic people’s self-advocacy, which does not require language; b) a unified autism diagnosis; and c) cross-disability system change supporting inclusion and self-determination. View this paper
