Psychopathology in children and adolescents with ASD without mental retardation. J Autism Dev Disord. 2013 Oct;43(10):2442-9. doi: 10.1007/s10803-013-1792-010.1007/s10803-013-1792-0https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/115155This study analyzes subclinical psychopathology in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) without mental retardation with no comorbid disorder, assessed by an extensive general psychopathology interview. The K-SADS-PL was administered to a group of 25 patients with ASD (mean age = 12.80 ± 2.86 years) and 25 healthy controls (mean age 12.52 ± 2.86 years). Significant differences were found between patients with ASD and controls for the domains of: depressive disorder, anxiety separation disorder, agoraphobia and specific phobias, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In patients without a comorbid disorder, we found a profile of subclinical disturbances that suggest high risk for comorbid psychiatric conditions derived from the presence of subthreshold symptomatology.engjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-013-1792-0https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10803-013-1792-0https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23468070/restricted access616.8ASDAdolescentPsiquiatría3211 Psiquiatría
