Summary
In this ACT - Autism Community Training video, Dr. Vikram Dua, a child psychiatrist and professor, introduces his approach, the Autism Comorbidity Algorithm (ACA). The goal of the ACA is to use a life-span orientation to assess both the benefits and risks of treatment. The ACA is based on the careful identification of the comorbid disorders in order to improve the child's functioning and prevent future complications.
