Updated Research on Autism

Autism begins in childhood, and at its core is a serious interpersonal relationship and communication disorder. The effects of the disorder intervene in multiple ways in relationships with the environment, participation in community life, the ability to adapt to society, and cognitive and language, motor, emotional and interactive functions are all affected. Such individuals perform better in a low-stimulation environment. So finding or creating a friendly environment for people with autism is a fundamental goal. Research on autism is still in its infancy in China, suggesting that clinical research on autism should be strengthened.
