Annual research review: re-thinking the classification of autism spectrum disorders
Open accessAbstract
Background: The nosology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is at a critical point in history as the field seeks to better define dimensions of social‐communication deficits and restricted/repetitive behaviors on an individual level for both clinical and neurobiological purposes. These different dimensions also suggest an increasing need for quantitative measures that accurately map their differences, independent of developmental factors such as age, language level and IQ. Method: Psychometric measures, clinical observation as well as genetic, neurobiological and physiological research from toddlers, children and adults with ASD are reviewed. Results: The question of how to conceptualize ASDs along dimensions versus categories is discussed within the nosology of autism and the proposed changes to the DSM‐5 and ICD‐11. Differences across development are incorporated into the new classification frameworks. Conclusions: It is crucial to balance the needs of clinical practice in ASD diagnostic systems, with neurobiologically based theories that address the associations between social‐communication and restricted/repetitive dimensions in individuals. Clarifying terminology, improving description of the core features of ASD and other dimensions that interact with them and providing more valid and reliable ways to quantify them, both for research and clinical purposes, will move forward both practice and science.

Individuals with ASD with low nonverbal IQs, compared to those with greater cognitive abilities, show greater social-communication difficulties.
“More specifically, individuals with ASD with low nonverbal IQs, compared to those with greater cognitive abilities, show increased repetitive behaviors (Gabriels et al. 2005) and greater social–communication difficulties (Lord and Jones 2012).”
From The Diagnosis of Autism: From Kanner to DSM-III to DSM-5 and Beyond (2021) · cites this paper as Lord and Jones 2012
In “Other dimensions relevant to ASDs” (page not provided), the review says that individuals with greater general learning difficulties also have more specific social-communication difficulties. That supports the comparison by cognitive ability, but the passage does not establish it specifically for low nonverbal IQ. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredLanguage ability has been linked to outcomes, such that individuals with minimal verbal abilities often show more severe ASD symptoms and greater intellectual impairment.
“Language ability has also been linked to outcomes, such that individuals with minimal verbal abilities often show more severe ASD symptoms (Lord and Jones 2012) and greater intellectual impairment (Luyster et al. 2008).”
From The Diagnosis of Autism: From Kanner to DSM-III to DSM-5 and Beyond (2021) · cites this paper as Lord and Jones 2012
In “Where should the dimension of language skill fit into classification of ASD?” (page unavailable), the review says language level affects ASD symptoms and that diagnostic features vary markedly with expressive language. It does not establish the more specific claim that minimally verbal individuals often have more severe ASD symptoms. The intellectual-impairment clause is attributed to Luyster et al., not to this source. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe major rationale behind DSM-5 changes is to improve reliability.
“The major rationale behind these changes is to improve reliability [3].”
From Subgrouping the Autism Spectrum: Reflections on DSM-5 (2013) · cites this paper as [3]
The 'Psychometric issues in developing classification measures' section calls reliability a continued goal for diagnostic classifications. It does not identify improving reliability as the major rationale for the DSM-5 changes; the 'Limitations of new diagnostic systems' section instead describes increasing equity across existing ASD subcategories as an overall goal of the new criteria. Page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.83)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMany argue that categorical and dimensional approaches are fluid, such that dimensions can become categories by defining thresholds, and categories can become dimensions by combining constructs to allow for common core features with accompanying variation.
“Many argue that categorical and dimensional approaches are fluid, such that dimensions can become categories by defining thresholds, and categories can become dimensions by combining constructs to allow for common core features with accompanying variation, as is seen in the transition from DSM-IV to DSM-5 (see Fig. 1; Pickles and Angold 2003; Lord and Jones 2012).”

The relationship between IQ and symptom severity is unsurprising given that individuals with lower cognitive abilities likely possess fewer strategies to compensate for ASD-specific deficits.
“While the relationship between IQ and symptom severity is unsurprising given individuals with lower cognitive abilities likely possess fewer strategies to compensate for ASD-specific deficits (Lord and Jones 2012), it is important to consider these associations when disentangling the effects of ASD and IQ on phenotypic profiles.”

The age at which caregivers recognize symptoms is often different from the age at which professionals diagnose ASD, and both are often different from the age at which symptoms may actually emerge.

“Notably, however, while conceptualized through clinical observation, the DSM-5 and ICD-11 criteria included within each domain are not empirically-defined dimensions (Lord and Jones 2012).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
