Abstract
This co-written article explores how a group of adults with Asperger's syndrome worked together with a neuro-typical researcher on a participatory research project. It claims that the group worked well because of, rather than in spite of the co-researchers having Asperger's syndrome. The role of the co-researchers within the group processes is discussed.
