\\\'\\\'\\\'Lack of Imagination:\\\'\\\'\\\' Related to No Sense Of Humour above, it is frequently reported that Aspies have little to no imagination, but this is verging on Critical Research Failure; there\\\'s a (fairly popular) theory that Aspies have excellent imaginations. What they lack (and probably what the reports in question mean by Aspies having no imagination) is Social Imagination; i.e., the ability to grasp that not everybody feels the same way. It requires \\\"imagining\\\" what another person is feeling, since you can\\\'t know for certain. To an Aspie, this is logical because you\\\'re not them, and it\\\'s rooted in their difficulty to recognize emotions in others.
What Aspies compensate with is an incredible \\\'\\\'Visual Imagination.\\\'\\\' Instead of socialising, an Aspie prefers to sit back and let the movie roll. Instead of having to share the toys in a group, they might \\\'\\\'imagine\\\'\\\' getting the toys out and having them coming to life in a way that physically playing with them can\\\'t produce. Movies too are a visual medium, and some Aspies like to sit back and play an entire movie in their heads, perhaps imagining themselves in a role. Obviously it\\\'s a solo activity.
If an Aspie takes to writing down what they imagine, expect them to paint an amazingly detailed picture of their world and characters as they strive to make their readers see what they see.
