While autism spectrum disorder screening tools provide a useful resource for practitioners, the reality is they are underused.

Abstract:
Autism has been largely portrayed as a psychiatric and childhood disorder. However, autism is a lifelong neurological condition that evolves over time through highly heterogeneous trajectories. These trends have not been studied in relation to normative aging trajectories, so we know very little about aging with autism. One aspect that seems to develop differently is the sense of movement, inclusive of sensory kinesthetic-reafference emerging from continuously sensed self-generated motions. These include involuntary micro-motions eluding observation, yet routinely obtainable in fMRI studies to

Autism is a type of neurological disorder usually noticeable during the early stage of childhood, especially between one to three years and occurs in all social groups. The common problem experienced by the autism subjects includes lack in social interaction, poor communication skill, overexcited, unable to express their emotions. While these disorders are not fully curable, early detection can reduce the severity with proper therapy. Even though there are no appropriate medications and treatments, still we can improve the lifestyle of the autism subject through various supportive therapies. I

Introduction. Conditions in which speech therapy treatment is applied in autistic children are often not in accordance with characteristics of opinions and learning of people with autism. A systemic multimodal approach means motivating autistic people to develop their language speech skill through the procedure which allows reliving of their personal experience according to the contents that are presented in the their natural social environment. This research was aimed at evaluating the efficiency of speech treatment based on the systemic multimodal approach to the work with autistic children.
