This journal publishes research on autism spectrum disorder (ASD), investigating its neurobiological underpinnings, genetic factors, and behavioral characteristics. Studies explore social interaction, communication, sensory processing, and cognitive functions in individuals with autism, often comparing them to neurotypical individuals. The journal also covers related conditions, comorbidities like anxiety, and the development of diagnostic and assessment tools.
