Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is mainly reflected in the communication and language barriers, difficulties in social communication, and it is a kind of neurological developmental disorder. "Psychiatrist EugenBleuler in 1908 termed Autism first. He used it to describe a schizophrenic patient who had withdrawn into his own world. Bleuler named Autism on the basis of Greek word "autós" meant self to mean morbid self-admiration and withdrawal within self." "The concept of autism was coined in 1911 by the German psychiatrist EugenBleuler to describe a symptom of the most severe cases of schizophrenia, a concept he had also created." Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) includes a family of neurodevelopmental disorders with very early onset that affect many aspects of behavior and cognition. In particular, it refers for deficiencies concerning three major domains: communication, social functioning and stereotyped behavior. Abstract and conceptual thinking have been the problems of people with autism. Some may eventually acquire abstract skills, but others never will. When abstract concepts must be used, use visual cues, such as drawings or written words, to augment the abstract idea. You can help most autistic children think conceptually by guiding them to put details together to form ideas — preferably with visual symbols. You can demonstrate abstract concepts like “more” or “less” with objects instead of explaining them in words.
