Asperger's syndrome (AS), a behavioral disorder that is related to autism, is associated with abnormal social functioning
and repetitive behaviors but not with a decrease in intelligence or linguistic functionality.
In children, some indicators for ASD include poor eye contact,
repetitive play styles, lack of smiling , constant attachment to a particular object and unresponsiveness.
