*A. Persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts,as manifested by the following, currently or by history (examples are illustrative,not exhaustive; see text): | |||
:*1. Deficits in social-emotional reciprocity, ranging, for example, from abnormal social approach and failure of normal back-and-forth conversation; to reduced sharing of | |||
interests, emotions, or affect; to failure to initiate or respond to social interactions. | |||
:*2. Deficits in nonverbal communicative behaviors used for social interaction, ranging,for example, from poorly integrated verbal and nonverbal communication; to abnormalities | |||
in eye contact and body language or deficits in understanding and use ofgestures: to a total lack of facial expressions and nonverbal communication. | |||
:*3. Deficits in developing, maintaining, and understanding relationships, ranging, for example,from difficulties adjusting behavior to suit various social contexts; to difficulties | |||
in sharing imaginative play or in making friends; to absence of interest in peers.Specify current severity:Severity is based on social communication impairments and restricted, repetitive | |||
patterns of behavior (seeTable 2). | |||

*B. Restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities, as manifested by atleast two of the following, currently or by history (examples are illustrative, not exhaustive; | |||
see text): | |||
:*1. Stereotyped or repetitive motor movements, use of objects, or speech (e.g., simplemotor stereotypies, lining up toys or flipping objects, echolalia, idiosyncratic | |||
phrases). | |||
2. Insistence on sameness, inflexible adherence to routines, or ritualized patterns of verbal or nonverbal behavior (e.g., extreme distress at small changes, difficultieswith transitions, rigid thinking patterns, greeting rituals, need to take same route or | |||
eat same food every day). | |||
:*3. Highly restricted, fixated interests that are abnormal in intensity or focus (e.g.,strong attachment to or preoccupation with unusual objects, excessively circumscribed | |||
or perseverative interests). | |||
:*4. Hyper- or hyporeactivity to sensory input or unusual interest in sensory aspects ofthe environment (e.g., apparent indifference to pain/temperature, adverse responseto specific sounds or textures, excessive smelling or touching of objects,visual fascination with lights or movement). | |||
Specify current severity: | |||
Severity is based on social communication impairments and restricted, repetitive | |||
patterns of behavior (see Table 2). | |||
*C. Symptoms must be present in the early developmental period (but may not become | |||
fully manifest until social demands exceed limited capacities, or may be masked by learned strategies in later life). | |||
D. Symptoms cause clinically significant impairment in social, occupational, or other important | |||
areas of current functioning. | |||
E. These disturbances are not better explained by intellectual disability (intellectual developmental | |||
disorder) or global developmental delay. Intellectual disability and autism | |||
spectrum disorder frequently co-occur; to make comorbid diagnoses of autism spectrum | |||
disorder and intellectual disability, social communication should be below that expected | |||
for general developmental level. | |||
