Résumé : |
Autism is a neuro-developmental disorder defined by deficits in social interaction and communication, and restricted interests and repetitive behaviors. Identification of the earliest signs of the disorder has important implications for understanding the developmental course and potential underlying neural mechanisms. It may also facilitate earlier identification of affected children and more timely and effective intervention. This chapter reviews the literature from both retrospective and prospective studies that identify early biomarkers and behavioral symptoms of atypical social motivation, delayed development of functional communication, and the onset of repetitive behaviors. The data suggest that signs of the disorder are not evident in the first six months of life, but emerge in the second half of the first year. The chapter closes with consideration of potential theoretical models of the available data and a brief discussion of the implications of these data for early diagnosis. |
