| Popis: | Autism spectrum disorders (ASD), labeled as pervasive developmental disorders (PDD) in the DSM-IV-TR (APA, 2000), are characterized by a distinct pattern of social and communication deficits with rigid ritualistic interests. While autism (Kanner, 1943) is the main category, other conditions include Asperger syndrome (Asperger, 1944) and pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified (PDDNOS). Rett disorder and childhood disintegrative disorder, although classified in the same category, are often not referred to as ASDs. As discussed elsewhere in this volume, the DSM-V is likely to collapse autism, Asperger syndrome, and PDDNOS into a single category called ASD. |
