高功能自闭症儿童和年龄和智力匹配的对照组参加了测试音高间隔和音乐轮廓感知的实验。间隔研究的结果表明，自闭症组在小音高距离上对音高方向的检测具有上级优势。在轮廓辨别测试中，没有出现组间差异。这些发现证实了早期的研究，即自闭症患者的音高处理能力增强，表现小尺度音乐结构的能力也得到了保留。
High functioning children with autism and age and intelligence matched controls participated in experiments testing perception of pitch intervals and musical contours. The finding from the interval study showed superior detection of pitch direction over small pitch distances in the autism group. On the test of contour discrimination no group differences emerged. These findings confirm earlier studies showing facilitated pitch processing and a preserved ability to represent small-scale musical structures in autism.
