Can Asperger's Syndrome affect memory?
Answer:
My brother has it, and yes, it does. Children with Asperger's syndrome do forget a lot due to the ongoing changes of subjects.
Yes. People with AS, as studies have shown, have additional quantity's of white matter (or memory storage space) in their brains. They have typical amounts Grey matter (or processing space).people with AS are less likely to prune the knowledge they acquire and in addition to this indiscriminate gathering of knowledge they are more likely to dynamically cross-reference and systematize such knowledge. People with AS often have very visual ways of receiving and storing knowledge. All of these factors add up two people with AS having quite exceptional memory capabilities
