If you want to take the time and read it, then by all means.
DSM-V
I have read that, it is just a string of suggestions and open comments by researchers.
Did you happen to see the proposed revisions before they were taken down?
Aspergers will no longer be recognized in the DSM as a disorder, because of how close HFA and AD are in diagnostic criteria. There will be three levels of autism, which vary by severity. ASD Level 1, ASD Level 2, and ASD Level 3. And hence, no more Aspergers.
I have, but this is were it gets confusing.
My psychology professor (who knows all about the DSM) said it would still be in there just not as a separate disorder as I said earlier.
The name won't stick around but it will still exist under the new spectrum.
