Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: b

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Answers should address: there is now only one category of ASD with no separate diagnosis for Asperger's or PPD-NOS; to be identified as ASD, individuals must now meet 4 criteria - deficits in social communication and social interactions not accounted for by other developmental delays; restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities; symptoms must be present in early childhood; symptoms together limit and impair everyday functioning - the concern is that some high-functioning individuals with ASD who are able to communicate and function in the world would no longer receive an ASD diagnosis; this could have implications for treatments and services provided by schools and other institutions
