complementary material of the article: Comparing the language strengths of autistic youth and adults to the recognition of language strengths by the family members/partners/friends of autistics in Finland

In April, 2024, we run an anonymous survey to investigate the language strengths (lexics, sintax, semantics, pragmatics, etc) of autistic youth and adults in Finland. The dataset consists of answers given by open-ended questions about the linguistic strengths of autistic people, we were also interested to see if these answers match with the reports of family members, partners, friends and caregivers of autistic individuals, children and post-mortum reports were also included in the data set. The texts are is English and Finnish language (n=43 autistics/Group 1), (n=47 families/Group 2). Edit: new version includes public organized data without translation.
