Judging by the particular deficits involved in some cases of Asperger's (like mine), I suggest that you include at least 1 part each of Hearing and Visual perception. Having scrambled sensory processing messes up my ability to perceive, let alone understand, nonverbal social cues (facial expressions, body language, tone of voice, etc.). This has a big negative impact on social skills -- growing up with this problem denied me the ability to learn social norms that weren't explicitly explained in words (and very, very few are in my culture).
