You can identify the core characteristics of the most common DSM-V disorders during the life
course, such as symptoms, prevalence and sex
DSM-V characteristics: MUST have all 3 of list A + at least 2 of list B
A: Persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts:
a. Deficits in social-emotional reciprocity; i.e. to failure to initiate or respond to social interactions.
b. Deficits in nonverbal communicative behaviors used for social interaction,
i. from poorly integrated verbal and nonverbal communication
ii. abnormalities in eye contact and body language
iii. deficits in understanding and use of gestures
c. Deficits in developing, maintaining, and understanding relationships
i. from difficulties adjusting behavior to suit various social contexts
ii. difficulties in sharing imaginative play or in making friends
iii. absence of interest in peers.
B: Restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities
a. Stereotyped or repetitive motor movements, use of objects, or speech
b. Insistence on sameness, inflexible adherence to routines, or ritualized patterns of verbal or nonverbal
behavior
c. Highly restricted, fixated interests that are abnormal in intensity or focus
d. Hyper- or hyporeactivity to sensory input or unusual interest in sensory aspects of the environment
i. (e.g. apparent indifference to pain/temperature, adverse response to specific sounds or textures,
excessive smelling or touching of objects, visual fascination with lights or movement).
Severity is based on social communication impairments and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior. Severity is
described in 3 levels:
Level 3 – requires very substantial support
Level 2 – Requires substantial support
Level 1 – requires support
Symptoms must be present in the early developmental period.
Symptoms cause clinically significant impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of current
functioning.
These disturbances are not better explained by intellectual disability (intellectual developmental disorder) or
global developmental delay.
Intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder frequently co-occur; to make comorbid diagnoses of
autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability, social communication should be below that expected for
general developmental level
