This empirical journal article provides evidence to suggest that children with autism spectrum disorder did not change their ratings of artwork in the presence of the artist. In this study children without autism spectrum disorder increased the rating of the drawing when the artist was present. This can affect different social relationships that children have in the future.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability that can cause significant social, communication and behavioral challenges. CDC is committed to continuing to provide essential data on ASD, search for factors that put children at risk for ASD and possible causes, and develop resources that help identify children with ASD as early as possible.

Children reach milestones in how they play, learn, speak, behave, and move. CDC has checklists to help parents and others track a child's development.

The ADDM Network is the only collaborative network to track the number and characteristics of children with ASD and other developmental disabilities in multiple communities of the United States.

SEED is currently the largest study in the United States to help identify factors that may put children at risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities.

1. I found out about my son having autism when getting him tested. Before he was diagnosed I was searching online to understand why he was acting a certain way. After seeing some of the signs that are linked to autism, I thought it would be best to consult with a medical professional.
2. After the medical professional informed me about this I asked him a lot of questions. I didn't want to leave the medical office without all of the right information.
3. I created a schedule, learned his strengths and weaknesses, became friends with his friends parents, and talked to his teachers and other staff members at his school.
4. I would tell other parents to learn what your child enjoys doing, join a support group if you have the time and money to do so, and understand that it may be a tough process.
5. No I didn't join any type of support group. My wife and I worked together to help him through this his childhood.
