Yes, and that is in the links I provided under "Resources". It is a perfect falsification, sadly I distrust the finding because while finding it I also found that teens and older do get misdiagnosed because the symptoms and consequences are similar. Again, I did write "misdiagnosed for another".
Oh, sorry.
I think that other people think: BPD and ASD are independent, orthogonal mental afflictions. The autism spectrum reaches from zero to +100%.
But I think they share a remarkable resemblance in that they are the opposites in deviation from the norm. The autism emotionally unstable spectrum reaches from "emotionally unstable" to "emotionally unresponsive". Or -100% to +100%
Better? (This editor is impossible for me.)
BPD - ASD
socially hyper-sensitive - socially hypo-sensitive
hyper-emotional - hypo-emotional
hyper-neurotic - hypo-neurotic
interest in people - interest in things
focus on feelings - focus on facts
mostly females - mostly males
wants to express subjective feelings - wants to arrange, order world to objective criteria (What does the person want to bring to the outside?)
Overall I see an over emphasis on the observable empirical disabilities, consequences and a lack of understanding the motivation, mediating cause. Because psychology depends on self-reporting, there is a strong perception bias that is not accounted for but answers are reported as fact.
Other non-primate animal doing similar: Alex the gray parrot https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_(parrot) He also made his own terms as "cork nut" for almond.
I don't get the joke. Who is "Rick Astley"?
yes, but I am posing the WHY question. In this case it is just an averaging effect not a feedback controller.
"parabola" That would be a third category then: No correlation observed because the aggregated observation cancels out the effect working both ways.
Examples: There is no evidence for the existence of human races. There is no evidence for biological differences between the sexes.
I will trust a person that states: "I think the sky is brown." more than a person that counters with: "The sky is certainly not brown, it is gray, because we have not seen it."
