   Extractions: Asperger Syndrome is a autism spectrum disorder which is very hard to diagnose. The symptoms are many and varied. It's a neurobiological disorder that affects the brain and the people who have it seem very "normal" a good share of the time. A rough guesstimate is that 1 in every 500 people in the US have this dysfunction which can include everything from language disabilities to sensory problems and physical awkwardness. These people are very intelligent, extremely structured and have no social awareness — they are often very literal - tell my son he needs something the way he needs "a hole in the head" and he literally will interpret it as he doesn't need any holes in his head so he doesn't want that; what he's picturing is you trying to actually put a literal hole in his head - this can cause alarm bells to ring all over the place for the child and what seemed a moment of small consequence could get out of hand in a big hurry. Why you should care at all is harder to define - but if you are in any sort of service from teaching to customer service at Walmart, from sales to software - it may help you understand some of the people you may meet and/or have to work with.

    Extractions: Maybe you've heard of it: the Geek Syndrome. You might even know it's a mild form of autism. The truth is Asperger's presents unique struggles that you might not have even thought of before. Asperger's syndrome is a pervasive developmental disorder, or autistic spectrum disorder, recognizable by the lack of social skills and the often highly intellectual, perseverative interests developed by those with Asperger's. For a person with Asperger's (an aspie ), friendships, social banter, and romantic relationships can be difficult channels to navigate. Language First of all, unlike autistic people, I did not have trouble learning to speak. However, I do have mild hyperlexia, which basically means a large vocabulary. Moreover, it is common for autistics and aspies to have some trouble lying, recognizing lies, and interpeting metaphors. The result is that most aspies are seen as literal and humorless. Like many aspies, my voice can sometimes sound monotonous and emotionless. Similarly, aspies are known for giving soliloquies about their favorite subjects, or

    Extractions: What is Asperger's syndrome? Asperger's Syndrome, a neurological disorder often descibed as a mild variant of autism, is among the autistic spectrum disorders. Aspergers Syndrome is a neurological disorder that is often described as a milder variant of autistic disorder, and both conditions are grouped under the broad diagnostic category of autistic spectrum disorders, or pervasive developmental disorders. Pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs) are marked by significant impairment in several areas of development, especially those involving social interaction, language development, and communication skills. The trait most characteristic of Aspergers, though it is not present in all cases of the syndrome, is a pedantic, monotonic speech pattern, usually focused on a particularly narrow area of interest. Aspergers Syndrome was first identified in 1944 by Dr. Hans Asperger, a Viennese pediatrician. Dr. Asperger identified a number of children (mostly boys) with a cluster of traits that included egocentricity, difficulties with social interaction, clumsiness (including problems with both fine and gross motor control), and pronounced language peculiarities. bodyOffer(29385) Among individuals with PDDs there is a wide range of intelligence, abilities, and adaptive or maladaptive behaviors. Those with Aspergers Syndrome usually function at a fairly high level. The line between Aspergers and high-functioning autism is not clearly marked, and many individuals who manifest autistic traits but who have well-developed language skills are diagnosed as having Aspergers Syndrome. Nevertheless, despite commonalities, there usually are identifiable differences between the two syndromes, and the American Psychiatric Associations Fourth Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) presents them as separate and distinct disorders.

    Extractions: Internet: http://ericec.org What can you tell me about Asperger syndrome? Asperger syndrome (AS) is a neurobiological disorder, which most researchers feel falls at the "high end" of the autistic spectrum. Individuals with Asperger syndrome can have symptoms ranging from mild to severe. While sharing many of the same characteristics as Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Not Otherwise Specified and High-Functioning Autism, Asperger syndrome is a relatively new term in the United States, having only recently being officially recognized as a diagnosis by the medical community. Individuals with AS can exhibit a variety of characteristics and the disorder can range from mild to severe. Individuals with AS show marked deficiencies in social skills, have difficulties with transitions or changes and prefer sameness. They often have obsessive routines and may be preoccupied with a particular subject of interest. They have a great deal of difficulty reading nonverbal cues (body language) and very often the individual with AS has difficulty determining proper body space. Often overly sensitive to sounds, tastes, smells, and sights, the person with AS may prefer soft clothing, certain foods, and be bothered by sounds or lights no one else seems to hear or see. It's important to remember that the person with AS perceives the world very differently. Therefore, many behaviors that seem odd or unusual are due to those neurological differences and not the result of intentional rudeness or bad behavior, and most certainly not the result of "improper parenting."
