disorder in the PDD spectrum/range Explanation: Most patients on the pdd spectrum suffer from communication and interpersonal skill issues. https://www.healthtap.com/topics/pdd-nos-label-gifted-child Consequently, there is no estimate of the population under the age of 18 on which to base projections and these projections are therefore unable to determine the movement of younger age cohorts into the PDD range. http://humanservices.alberta.ca/documents/PDD/pdd-calgary-su... |

Pervasive Developmental Disorder Explanation: "The diagnostic category pervasive developmental disorders (PDD), as opposed to specific developmental disorders (SDD), refers to a group of five disorders characterized by delays in the development of multiple basic functions including socialization and communication. The pervasive developmental disorders are:[1] Pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS), which includes atypical autism, and is the most common; Autism, the best-known; Asperger syndrome; Rett syndrome; and Childhood disintegrative disorder (CDD)." en.m.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Pervasive_developmental_disorder -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs (2014-05-17 08:53:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- What is PDD-NOS? PDD-NOS stands for Pervasive Developmental Disorder-Not Otherwise Specified. "Psychologists and psychiatrists sometimes use the term “pervasive developmental disorders” and “autism spectrum disorders” (ASD) interchangeably. As such, PDD-NOS became the diagnosis applied to children or adults who are on the autism spectrum but do not fully meet the criteria for another ASD such as autistic disorder (sometimes called “classic” autism) or Asperger Syndrome." www.autismspeaks.org/what_autism/pdd-nos |
