Understanding and Addressing Restricted and Repetitive Behaviors in Children with AutismRestricted and repetitive behaviors (RRBs) in ASD include stereotyped movement, repetitive use of objects and speech, restricted interests, insistence on sameness, and atypical sensory responses. The way these symptoms ...
Progress in understanding the genetic etiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has fueled remarkable advances in our understanding of its potential neurobiological mechanisms. Yet, at the same time, these findings highlight extraordinary causal diversity and complexity at many levels ranging from molecu...
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disability characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and repetitive behaviors (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Children with ASD have increased health and developmental needs (Hyman et al., 2020). Consequently, from...

Recently, increasing numbers of rare pathogenic genetic variants have been identified that are associated with variably elevated risks of a range of neurodevelopmental outcomes, notably including Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD), and Intellectual Disability (ID). This...

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by deficits in social cognition, language development, and repetitive/restricted behaviors. Due to the complexity and heterogeneity of ASD and lack of a proper human ce
In recent years, the emerging field of computational psychiatry has impelled the use of machine learning models as a means to further understand the pathogenesis of multiple clinical disorders. In this paper, we discuss how autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
