Autism has been described as a neural deficit in prediction, people with autism manifest low perceptual construal and are impaired at traversing psychological distances, and Gilead et al.'s hierarchy from iconic to multimodal to fully abstract, socially communicated representations is exactly the hierarchy of representational impairment in autism, making autism a natural behavioural and neurophysiological test case for the prediction–abstraction relationship.

河流中的其他和其他水域：自闭症和预测的徒劳

自闭症被描述为预测中的神经缺陷，自闭症患者表现出低知觉解释并且在穿越心理距离时受损，Gilead 等人的层次结构从标志性到多模态再到完全抽象的社会交流表征正是自闭症的表征障碍，使自闭症成为预测-抽象关系的自然行为和神经生理学测试案例。
