Core Tip
Core Tip: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exerts a serious effect on the development of children’s perception, language, emotion, and especially social interaction, with substantial individual differences in its clinical characteristics and severity. However, the cause of ASD remains unknown. This study investigated and analyzed the clinical psychological characteristics of ASD reflected by the scale results to early detect ASD, providing a theoretical basis for clinical workers to better understand and apply the C-PEP-3 in evaluating children with ASD and formulating individualized intervention plans.
