中文簡介

自閉癥研究包括與ASD相關(guān)的研究和與神經(jīng)發(fā)育障礙密切相關(guān)的研究。該雜志側(cè)重于遺傳學(xué)，神經(jīng)生物學(xué)，免疫學(xué)，流行病學(xué)和心理學(xué)機(jī)制，以及這些如何影響ASD的發(fā)展過程。該雜志鼓勵提交原始的研究論文(研究文章和簡短的報告)，采用發(fā)展的方法來研究自閉癥的生物學(xué)和心理學(xué)，特別強(qiáng)調(diào)識別潛在的機(jī)制和整合不同層次的分析。這些貢獻(xiàn)通常是經(jīng)驗性的，但如果能顯著促進(jìn)思考，《華爾街日報》也會發(fā)表理論論文。該雜志鼓勵對動物、細(xì)胞或其他與更好地理解ASD直接相關(guān)的模型系統(tǒng)進(jìn)行報道。該雜志還發(fā)表了對ASD的核心癥狀或一種常見的共病癥狀的治療進(jìn)行了仔細(xì)臨床試驗的報告。提交臨床試驗的論文將在一定程度上根據(jù)報告的治療是否有實(shí)證依據(jù)來判斷。被納入研究的個體可以跨越ASD的整個譜系，包括更廣泛的表型，并且在年齡或智力方面對研究參與者沒有限制。自閉癥研究由國際自閉癥研究協(xié)會(INSAR)共同擁有和支持，這是一個致力于提高自閉癥譜系障礙(ASD)知識的科學(xué)和專業(yè)組織。更多信息，請訪問協(xié)會網(wǎng)站:www.autism-insar.org。

英文簡介

Autism Research covers research relevant to ASD and closely related neurodevelopmental disorders. The journal focuses on genetic, neurobiological, immunological, epidemiological and psychological mechanisms and how these influence developmental processes in ASD. The journal encourages the submission of original research papers (Research Articles and Short Reports) that take a developmental approach to the biology and psychology of autism, with a particular emphasis on identifying underlying mechanisms and integrating across different levels of analysis. Contributions are typically empirical, but the journal also publishes theoretical papers if they significantly advance thinking. The journal encourages papers reporting work on animals or cell or other model systems that are directly relevant to a better understanding of ASD. The journal also publishes reports of carefully conducted clinical trials of treatments for the core symptoms or one of the common co-morbid symptoms of ASD. Papers presenting clinical trials will be judged, in part, on whether there is an empirical justification for the reported treatment. Individuals included in research studies can span the full spectrum of ASD, including the broader phenotype, and there are no restrictions on study participants in terms of age or intellectual ability.Autism Research is co-owned and supported by The International Society for Autism Research (INSAR), a scientific and professional organization devoted to advancing knowledge about Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
