Abstract
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are developmental disabilities where language development is absent or delayed, rote or repetitive behaviors typically emerge, and nonverbal communication, imagination, and social interactions are profoundly hindered (1). The severity of impairment in each of these dimensions can be quite variable, as can individual cognitive functioning (2). However, even higher-functioning persons with ASD are confronted with significant lifelong challenges.
