Or possibly, how problems with prediction may stem from autism.

That seams like a very good question.

Why would they not mention that in the article? seams odd

edit:

But on second thought...

If something is caused by autism it would be part of the definition for the behaviors that we call autism.

I should thank Michael Crichton for getting me in the habit of looking out for potential "Wet Streets Cause Rain" articles.

The article gets into that near the end, that maybe social issues make it harder to learn how to make predictions rather than the other way around.
