This Workshop focuses on broadening the attendee's understanding of Asperger's Disorder by learning how to design social competence interventions and develop coping mechanisms. Attendees discuss diagnostic criteria from sources of DSM-IV-TR, ICD-10, Gillberg, Szatmari, and others. Attendees also compare and contrast the criteria and symptom inventory to gain a better understanding of the breadth of descriptive criteria involved in sorting out the diagnosis.
