95% of children with pdd with also be diagnosed with asd (same behaviours) Happens over a long time, a severe, chronic developmental disability. Need to see symptoms before age 3 (early in onset) Dsm v criteria: severity based on social communication and social interaction impairments and restricted, repetitive patterns of behaviour. Deficits in social-emotional reciprocity (reciprocal in behaviours? give to their team, family?) Repetitive motor movements, use of objects, speech (echolalia) Insistence on sameness, inflexible adherence to routines, ritualized behaviour. Restricted and fixated interests of abnormal intensity or focus (i. e. on objects) Hyper-/hypo-reactivity to sensory input or interest in sensory environment (i. e. light) Pronominal reversal (don"t use i or me , instead use he , she , they , you ) Bizarre behaviours (flap arms when don"t understand something) Can be positive with some work as can convince that pa and healthy eating needs to fit into routine.
