Abstract

Enter Autism / ASD is defined as a neurodevelopmental disorde that affects social interaction skills, communication skills and a number of areas of interest

Many currents tried to Explain this disorder as - neurodevelopmental theory

The "neurodevelopmental  hypothesis" indicates that during neurological maturity of early childhood, certain functions can be disrupted.

The second current hypothesis Considered  that autism is the result of functional   abnormal structural anomalies

Through this study, we tray to  clarify the psychoneurobilogical basis of autism.as neurodevelopmental theory explain it
