Abilitatile de discriminare ne permit sa spunem un obiect de la altul, sa intelegem ca lucrurile diferite au nume diferite si sa le folosim pentru a realiza o gama larga de abilitati cognitive si lingvistice, inclusiv urmarea instructiunilor vorbite, comunicarea si citirea. Predarea abilitatilor esentiale de discriminare pentru copiii cu autism prezinta un curriculum sistematic, bazat pe dovezi, pentru a promova invatarea copiilor.
