Autism is a major international forum for research of direct practical relevance to improving the quality of life for individuals with autism or autism-related disorders.
The journal's success and popularity reflect the recent worldwide growth in the research and understanding of autism spectrum disorders and the consequent impact on the provision of treatment and care.
Autism is published six times a year by Sage Publications, in January, March, May, July, September and November. The journal aims to:
- encourage research into practice in the field of autism spectrum disorders
- encourage theoretical and academic researchers to consider the implications of their findings for practice.
Articles include substantive research reports, as well as smaller-scale action research and case studies. Critical reviews of recent experimental work, and its relevance to intervention and care provision, are also a core feature of the journal.
