Abstract
Based on the review of behavioral and cognitive studies in autism, the article introduced and analysed the most recent and representative findings of the disorder in cognitive-neuroscience: evidence for abnormal neural connectivity. According to the abnormal neural connectivity hypothesis, autism co-occurred with “local over-connectivity” and “distant under-connectivity”. Structural and functional brain connectivity studies in autism did provide some support for the hypothesis. The abnormal neural connectivity hypothesis provided some directions in integrating the multi-dimensional research findings, understanding the disorder, early diagnosis and intervention.
