Abstract
Autism is often considered a disability, but it is more accurately understood as a difference in the way people think and process information. Despite this, many individuals with autism face challenges in social interactions and carrying out daily activities. While autism is often associated with intellectual disability, many individuals with autism have normal or even above-average intelligence. The term "Asperger's Disorder," previously used to describe individuals with autism who have higher intellectual functioning, has now been combined with the autism spectrum diagnosis.
Our understanding of autism continues to evolve. The current focus is not only on observable behaviors but also on the unique ways of thinking and processing information in individuals with autism. By understanding these differences, we can provide more appropriate and effective support. The primary goal in supporting individuals with autism is to help them reach their full potential and participate fully in society. Therapy should be individualized and tailored to each individual's needs. Furthermore, it is important to involve individuals with autism and their families in the decision-making process regarding support.
