As a part of American culture, Autism Speaks has wriggled its way into the homes and mouths of families across the country, throwing massive amounts of money into fundraising, advocacy, research, and advertising every year.

Why do some of their ads treat autism like a man in an alleyway waiting to rob someone of their happiness, their money, and their “happy marriage?” (I am Autism).

I couldn’t believe that someone was taking advantage of the autistic child’s inability to disclose their abuse. I couldn’t understand how the children knew the specific words used to describe their abuse, there’s only so much they could’ve learned from watching TV. The double blind experiment results left me dumbfounded. I thought that the facilitator might have had some influence in helping the autistic person type, but I never would’ve guessed that it was all the facilitator. I guess I wanted to believe just like others in the video.

It also provides for feedback to enable users determine requirements for improving on existing models. The framework shall help to elicit new requirements for iteratively and incrementally extending and modifying existing biomedical ontologies to suit changing user needs and accommodate new types of data. This shall facilitate extending and modifying existing ontology for reuse and avoid the huge effort of starting or building entirely new ontologies in terms of time, effort and domain specific knowledge. The model design is flexible, generic and can be applied to evaluations in other domains with dynamic environments.
