About this trial
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder (Valerie, Sperenza, 2009) that begins early in development, characterized by persistent deficits in communication and social interactions across various contexts and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. These symptoms significantly impact social, school/professional functioning, or other important areas and are not better explained by intellectual disability or global developmental delay (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
