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.
最近的调查破除了一些关于自闭症的误解。它并非是中上层阶级的疾病;父母也不是病因;孩子们并非“不理会外界”,而是从未“融入外界”;最重要的是,自闭症并非儿童精神分裂症,其诊断标准具有区分性。自闭症的管理需要医生、家庭和社区密切互动。
