Editor:
Thank you for the publication of our paper, “Emerging Perspectives on Adolescents and Young Adults With High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders, Violence, and Criminal Law, ” in Volume 40, Number 2 of The Journal. We are writing to submit a correction to a misstatement in the published manuscript:
On page 178, the sentence that reads:
The New Jersey statute goes so far as to mandate expert evaluation of defendants suspected of carrying a diagnosis of autism….
should in fact read:
The Florida statute goes so far as to mandate expert evaluation of defendants suspected of carrying a diagnosis of autism… (emphasis added).
We apologize for this oversight and appreciate your help in alerting the readership to the correction.
