What are the purported mechanisms of eidetic memory and why is it comorbid with autism? I see. However, it may depend on the definition of savant. The article you are pointing to use it vaguely as 'savant skills'. For me it is possible (but far from obvious in any way) that 'autistic subjects have better visual memory that non-autistic subjects'. Of course, if you compare the relative verbal/visual skills you get you conclusion, but it is very different from the former. When it comes to visual skills of autistic persons, see e.g. aut.sagepub.com/cgi/reprint/11/6/547.pdf. |

What are the purported mechanisms of eidetic memory and why is it comorbid with autism? Bear in mind that savants are extremely rare, also among people with autism. Moreover, a brief look at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… gives impression, that it is not an 'autistic condition'. |

What do the super-large brains of whales and elephants map to? A good answer, but I am not entirely happy with one detail: about 2.5 dimensions. I get what you mean, but I want to point that a fractal dimension is a mathematical concept. And for example it is $d=2.5$ for the 3D quadratic Koch surface (type 2) and I guess it its not what you mean. As it may have sense (you can measure fractal dim of mountains or land with trees), I think it is good to reword it in this answer. |

How can I find open access journals for cognitive science research? @StevenJeuris Excuse me, but this question does not qualifies as "A question that involves lists where you want to learn the items on the list but also what is best?". This question well-defined and just asking for a particular list. So it is a well-defined objective question. |

How can I find open access journals for cognitive science research? On the contrary, I think that the question is worth keeping open (personally I would like to know the answer). Perhaps some rewording may be beneficial. But even for a large scope one can answer with a list of different journals. |
