Abstract
Individuals with ASD feature extensively in discussions on savant syndrome and seem to be the most prevalent group among the savant population (Bennett & Heaton, 2017; Clark, 2001; Skuse, 2011). It is important to understand the relationship between ASD and the savant syndrome as the two are closely connected (Boso et al., 2010; Clark, 2001).
