Autism Spectrum Disorder represents a group of disorders, including Autism, PDD-NOS, Rett's Disorder, Child Disintegrative Disorder and Asperger?s Disorder (American Psychiatric Association, 1994). According to DSM-IV-TR (APA, 2000), qualitative impairments in social interaction is one of the defining characteristics for the diagnosis of Autistic Disorder. Social impairments can include: lack of use of nonverbal behaviors such as eye gaze, gestures, body postures and facial expressions; lack of social-emotional reciprocity; impairment in expression of pleasure in the happiness of others; and a lack of interaction with peers, including an absence of symbolic or imaginative play activities (APA, 2000).
