Asperger’s Syndrome In today’s society, Asperger’s Syndrome is being talked about, and seen, more than ever, from television shows, such as Parenthood, to magazine articles, and of course in the inclusive classroom. Throughout this paper we will be looking at where Asperger’s Syndrome originated, some of the characteristics and causes, as well as ways in which teachers and parents can better deal with a child that has Asperger’s Syndrome. Asperger’s Syndrome is found under Autistic Spectrum

Research justification: Autism Spectrum Disorder has been in existence for nearly two decades. Autism was first identified by two Austrian psychiatrists, Dr. Leo Kanner and Dr. Hans Asperger in 1940s (Phetrasuwan et al., 2009). Dr. Kanner studied a small group of eleven young children in 1943 that exhibited unusual behaviour like aloneness, temper tantrums, limited spontaneity, grammatical errors during conversations, repeating sentences or mute, repetitive routines, isolated skills, serious mindedness

Asperger’s Syndrome: A look into a new face of Autism Spectrum Disorders By John Grove Autism has many faces and facets involved in a complex disorder. Autism is a distinct group of complex disorders that involve issues with communicative disorders, social impairment as well as other complexities such as restrictive, repetitive, and stereotyped behavior. Autism Spectrum Disorders include disorders such as Asperger’s, Autistic Disorder, Pervasive Development Disorder, and Childhood

Asperger’s Syndrome is categorized as an autism spectrum disorder. It is a developmental disorder found at the higher functioning end of the autism spectrum. (Calero,Mata, Bonete, Molinero, Mar Gómez-Pérez, 2015). The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) defines autism as a “developmental disability significantly affecting verbal and nonverbal communication and social interaction, generally evident before age three, that adversely affects a child’s educational performance” (Heward

However, today’s definition and the approach of autism was still reflecting many of Kanner’s original observations about autism spectrum disorder. Hans Asperger published the first definition of Asperger’s syndrome in 1994. Asperger studied four boys that had a pattern of behavior and abilities that he called “autistic psychopathy,” The pattern that the four boys had was a lack of empathy, little ability to form friendships, one-sided conversation

With multiple conditions and characteristics in each case, AS is not an easy disorder to diagnose. Asperger’s Syndrome was named after Hans Asperger, an Austrian physician, who first described the disorder in 1944 after studying a group of children with similar, unusual characteristics. However, AS was not made an official disease until 1994. Consequently, Asperger disease is just now becoming published and popular so there is still research and questions being answered.
