In the study conducted it was found that the "bridge" between the two halves of the brain is missing in autistic people and that they therefore develope both sides of the brain equally rather that becoming "left brained" or "right brained". This missing bridge would also explain the problems with processing speech, emotions, and other such related problems that are common among autistic people.
