Summary
Autism spectrum disorder is characterized by differences in social communication/interaction and the presence of restricted/repetitive behaviors, with significant heterogeneity in terms of autistic features, language ability, and cognitive characteristics.

Autistic people are 3-4 times more likely to experience depression than non-autistic people.
