Autism Spectrum

Has anyone seen this story on Asperger's Syndrome and the proposal to fold it into the single broad diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder? That's according to an article in The New York Times that states that experts who are revising psychiatry's diagnostic manual have proposed eliminating the term from the new edition of the manual, due out in 2012. For more information on the article, go to our news section. We're interested to hear reactions.

Digest of Autism Spectrum Stories

In recent weeks, we've come across a few stories that might interest members whose students are on the autism spectrum. The first story is this one from the The New York Times that reports a rise in autism diagnoses. The article refers to a government report that suggests that more than 1 in 100 American children and teenagers may have autism, Asperger's syndrome or a related developmental problem.
