Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a category of [[neurodevelopmental disorders]] with problems in social communication/interaction and restricted and repetitive behaviors/interests. According to the Diagnostic And Statistical Manual Of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition ([[Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders|DSM]]-5) released by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in 2013, Asperger Syndrome (AS) goes under a spectrum of disorders called 'Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)'. Asperger Syndrome is named after Hans Asperger, an Austrian physician. He was the first to describe and separate Asperger Syndrome from [[autism]] and called it 'autistic psychopathy' which later became known as Asperger Syndrome.
