In this study, it was found that social cognition (specifically recognising emotions) was the only significant independent predictor of teacher-rated adaptive functioning. Māori (Indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand) were overrepresented in this study and, therefore, the research was supported by a strong partnership with Te Wāhanga Hauora Māori (Māori Health Service).
