Query: Hi everyone! I have another piece coming out specifically on the outdated use of Asperger’s. I’m looking for quotes on:

  1. Why is Asperger’s no longer used? When did it officially stop?
  2. What is the accepted terminology now?
  3. Why do some people still use and prefer the term Asperger’s?

As always, I need a link to your professional bio page on a private practice site, commercial employer, or academia. I can’t use bios from general internet directories or competitor content sites. The website you submit must at least have your name and credentials on it, preferably with an extended bio. I do prioritize submissions with the answers already provided in the reply, and I usually use 2-3 experts in each article. If you’d like to learn more about me and what I write, you can visit my author pages or LinkedIn profile:
