What Is Autism?
What is Autism Spectrum Disorder?
Autism spectrum disorder (
ASD) and autism are both general terms for a group of complex disorders of brain development. These disorders are characterized, in varying degrees, by difficulties in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication and repetitive behaviors. With the May
2013 publication of the
DSM-5 diagnostic manual, all autism disorders were merged into one umbrella diagnosis of ASD.
Previously, they were recognized as distinct subtypes, including autistic disorder, childhood disintegrative disorder, pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified (
PDD-NOS) and
Asperger syndrome.
ASD can be associated with intellectual disability, difficulties in motor coordination and attention and physical health issues such as sleep and gastrointestinal disturbances. Some persons with ASD excel in visual skills, music, math and art.
Autism appears to have its roots in very early brain development. However, the most obvious signs of autism and symptoms of autism tend to emerge between 2 and 3 years of age.
Autism Speaks continues to fund research on effective methods for earlier diagnosis, as early intervention with proven behavioral therapies can improve outcomes.
Increasing autism awareness is a key aspect of this work and one in which our families and volunteers play an invaluable role. Learn more …
How
Common Is Autism?
Autism statistics from the
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (
CDC) identify around 1 in 68
American children as on the autism spectrum–a ten-fold increase in prevalence in 40 years.
Careful research shows that this increase is only partly explained by improved diagnosis and awareness. Studies also show that autism is four to five times more common among boys than girls. An estimated 1 out of 42 boys and 1 in 189 girls are diagnosed with autism in the
United States.
