Résumé : |
This chapter discusses differential diagnosis between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and major depressive disorder (MDD). Though individuals with ASD and/or MDD may present with clinical similarities (e.g. social-communicative challenges and rigid patterns of thinking and behavior), differences are also present. Developmental considerations in the diagnosis and co-occurrence of MDD and ASD are discussed, and particular attention is paid to symptoms manifesting in early life (e.g. birth to 4-years-old). Specific clinical similarities and differences and recommendations for providers are given. A case study is presented to illustrate diagnostic considerations and decision-making. A decision tree is provided to outline diagnostic considerations based on presenting symptoms. |
