There is a wide range of behavioral outcomes associated with ASD. Some people with
ASD may be nonverbal, while others may speak fluently. Some people with ASD may be able to
live relatively independently, while others may require significant support (Courchesne et al.
2020). Some people with ASD may be knowledgeable, while others may have cognitive
impairments. There is also a wide range of behaviors associated with ASD. Some people with
ASD may be highly social, while others may be introverted. Some people with ASD may be
susceptible to sensory input, while others may be insensitive. Some people with ASD may
engage in repetitive behaviors, while others may not. The behavior of an individual with ASD
may be different from that of a neurotypical individual in several ways. People with ASD may be
more likely to engage in repetitive behaviors, be less responsive to social cues, and be more
sensitive to sensory input (Courchesne et al. 2020). They may also have difficulty
communicating and may be more likely to experience anxiety and depression.
I might have a daily routine that includes activities such as: waking up, getting dressed,
eating breakfast, brushing my teeth, going to school or work, having lunch, doing homework or
chores, playing, eating dinner, taking a bath or shower, and going to bed. This routine might be
written down or displayed in a visual schedule to help me remember what comes next.
There is no single genetic cause of ASD. Instead, it is thought that genetic and
environmental factors cause ASD. Some research suggests that ASD may be associated with a
mutation in a gene that is involved in brain development. Some experts believe that
environmental and genetic factors may cause ASD. It is thought that certain environmental
factors, such as exposure to toxins or viruses, may contribute to the development of ASD in
individuals who are genetically predisposed to the condition.
