Abstract

Happe and Frith (2020) list seven changes in the concept of autism that have taken place since the 80s when autism became the focus of clinical concerns and research interests. These dramatic changes, supported by additional research results, have not convinced Sonuga-Barke (2020) that a Kuhnian revolution in psychiatric nosology may be at our front door. This commentary will discuss this conclusion, calling on ASD researchers to re-evaluate the benefits of a paradigm shift in the nosology of ASD.
