Abstract

Since the presentation of the of the 11 cases of autism by Leo Kanner in 1943, this disability has been the subject of innumerable investigations, publications and changes both at the diagnostic and intervention levels, often controversial. Although these initiatives have provided greater knowledge and clarification of various aspects of autism, they have also caused confusion especially for parents and professionals from different areas, since, over time, alternative diagnoses have included excluded within Autism. Initially a review of the origins of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is provided, followed by presented the current scenario resulting from DSM-5 and the ICD-11 proposal to describe ASD as a neurodevelopmental disorder; then the main issues related to ASD within the historical trend, the consequences and future predictors as well as the current research trends. Although the advances have is has been several advances been positive, there is a feeling that the issues have not been resolved and that further studies are needed to develop better intervention strategies.
