postheadericon Subclinical Forms of Autism

  • A clinical autism spectrum diagnosis by doctors or psychologists usually placed under the condition that a person suffers in several areas of life. A person may well be autistic, but because of their situation in life, talent and / or support of education, training, employers, friends, partners or other forms of support to cope well enough to get no clinical diagnosis. In this case, such a person may receive a diagnosis, if, after a possible loss of aid leads to an anomaly, so that doctors and therapists can justify a clinical diagnosis.
  • The question of whether it is in autism or autism spectrum disorders a category or a dimension is unclear. There is literature on subclinical forms of autism, a chapter about “Autistic Echos” in the book “The shadow syndrome: Neurobiology and mild forms of mental disorders”. In research, the concept of a ‘Broad Autism Phenotypes examines’, such as autistic traits from parents of autistic children.
  • Some other official (ICD-10/DSM-IV) and unofficial (not in ICD-10/DSM-IV) diagnoses are examined in relation to autism, such as Hyperlexia, nonverbal learning disability, dyspraxia, sensory integration disorder or linguistic-pragmatic disorder . The issue of these as a separate diagnosis, or rather as part of a broader autism spectrum may be seen is unclear.
