1. Define synesthesia.
2. In two sentences, summarize the neurological / connectivity data presented in this study.
3. What do you think might be a potential neurological mechanism to account for the relatively higher prevalence of synesthesia in individuals with autism?
4. Is synesthesia primarily due to alterations in sensation or perception (as compared to individuals that are not synesthetes)? (Note: no one knows with certainty; but which seems more likely and why?)
5. Imagine you are a graduate student in a laboratory that studies synesthesia and have access to a subject pool of 30 individuals with synesthesia.  You have to write a thesis based on a research project.  What will your thesis be about?   (Be detailed- what will you study and how will you study it?).
