The first book of its kind which demonstrates how to conduct an appropriate diagnostic interview to assess a child for an Autism Spectrum Disorder Considers the issues of Autism Spectrum Disorders in children, teenagers, and adults Aimed at both medical and mental health professionals Includes an in-depth treatment of the entire diagnostic process The past decade has seen a tremendous increase in the number of people being diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders - and not just young children. Diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorders: A Lifespan Perspective is the first volume of its kind to provide authoritative information for professionals on how to appropriately evaluate and diagnose these disorders in individuals of all ages. Donald P. Gallo, a board-certified clinical psychologist, shares his professional insights and expertise garnered from more than 1,500 autism evaluations over the past ten years. The book includes in-depth interviewing strategies that focus on the three primary areas of impairment - socialization, communication, and behavior - to determine if an individual has an Autism Spectrum Disorder. Differential diagnostic considerations are also addressed, and numerous case examples provide further clarity. Ways to present the assessment findings to parents and patients that will help them accept the diagnosis are also included. The information is targeted specifically for a wide range of practitioners, including child psychologists, child psychiatrists, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, paediatricians, paediatric neurologists, and students in those disciplines. Authoritative and timely, Diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorders: A Lifespan Perspective provides medical and mental health professionals everywhere with an invaluable resource for the proper diagnoses and assessment of an exceedingly complex disorder which affects people of all ages. 606 $aAutism$xDiagnosis 606 $aInternal medicine 615 0$aAutism$xDiagnosis. 615 0$aInternal medicine. 676 $a616.8588206 700 $aGallo$b Donald P$01683101 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910829957603321 996 $aDiagnosing autism spectrum disorders$94053668 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01892oas 2200745 a 450 001 9910138796303321 005 20260218110847.0 011 $a2159-256X 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2682444-9 035 $a(OCoLC)694183524 035 $a(CONSER) 2010203824 035 $a(CKB)2320000000021225 035 $a(DE-599)2682444-9 035 $a(EXLCZ)992320000000021225 100 $a20101223b20112017 uy a 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aMobile genetic elements 210 $aAustin, TX $cLandes Bioscience 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 08$a2159-2543 531 0 $aMob. genet. elem. 606 $aMobile genetic elements$vPeriodicals 606 $aDNA$vPeriodicals 606 $aE?le?ments ge?ne?tiques mobiles$vPe?riodiques 606 $aADN$vPe?riodiques 606 $aDNA$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00886555 606 $aMobile genetic elements$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01024228 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 615 0$aMobile genetic elements 615 0$aDNA 615 6$aE?le?ments ge?ne?tiques mobiles 615 6$aADN 615 7$aDNA. 615 7$aMobile genetic elements. 676 $a572.869 712 02$aLandes Bioscience. 712 02$aTaylor & Francis, 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 801 2$bCUS 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bCUS 801 2$bDLC 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bNLM 801 2$bDLC 801 2$bUKMGB 801 2$bVT2 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bBWN 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bUEJ 801 2$bOCLCL 801 2$bOCLCQ 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910138796303321 996 $aMobile genetic elements$92037371 997 $aUNINA
