Behavioral, Cognitive of Individuals with Asperger Syndrome

Anurag Aggarwal

Asperger's is defined as a neurobiological disorder that causes obvious deficits in social skills, such as communication problems and changes in routine. Asperger syndrome (AS) is a subtype of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) that is described by significant problems in social and nonverbal communication along with limited and repetitive forms of behavior and interests. Intellectual advancement and cognitive development are preserved in AD, which helps us differentiate them from other subtypes of ASD. Since the introduction of this diagnosis and due to the improvement in diagnosis, many children have been diagnosed with asperger's, which with the release of DSMV has now become part of the autism spectrum disorder.
