Abstract

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of neurodevelopmental disorders that are mainly characterized by deficits in social communication and interactions. Repetitive behaviors and/or interests and sensory sensitivities are also common. Many individuals also have comorbidities, including intellectual disability, adaptive skill deficits, anxiety, and aggressive behaviors. The prevalence of ASD is reported to be 1:68 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2016) with boys affected at a higher rate than girls (4.5:1).
