Abstract
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction, as well as restricted and repetitive behaviours (RRBs). ASD’s heterogeneous nature often leads to overdiagnosis and hampers the development of treatments. This raises the question whether the current diagnostic approach, based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-fifth edition (DSM-5) criteria, is the most accurate and effective. Therefore, the aim is to explore a neurobiological perspective on diagnosing the core symptoms of ASD besides the currently used DSM-5.
