The Researches Outcome of Autism Children

Abstract] Autism is a neurodevelopment disorder characterized by significant disturbances in social, communicative,and behavioral functioning. No one knows for sure what causes a person to develop autism. Current research indicates there is a strong genetic component. The theory of mind is closely related with communication,interaction and imagination in autistic individuals. The paper reviews a brief history of autism,the stort-term outcome of autistic children, and the biological, psychological and social factors related to the disorder were studied. It finally examines the issues of early identification and training of autism with theory of mind as well as concludes with the existing difficulties and future trend in research. Improving the doctors and parents cognition about autism and helping parents adopt suitable family education could prevent its incidence and improve its prognosis.
