  • Title: Autism: definition, diagnosis, and management.
    Author: Schopler E, Dalldorf J.
    Journal: Hosp Pract; 1980 Jun; 15(6):64-73. PubMed ID: 7399485.
    Abstract:
    Recent investigations have exploded a number of misconceptions about autism. It is not a disease of the upper middle class; nor are parents etiologic agents; the children do not "tune out" but rather they never "tune in"; most important, autism is not childhood schizophrenia, and the diagnostic criteria are discriminating. Management of autism mandates close physician-family-community interactions.
