Neurodevelopmental
Persistent deficits in social communication/interaction across multiple contexts (≥3 components: social-emotional reciprocity; nonverbal communicative behaviours; developing/maintaining relationships)
≥6 inattentive symptoms and/or ≥6 hyperactive-impulsive symptoms (≥5 for age ≥17) for ≥6 months, inconsistent with developmental level and negatively impacting activities
B. Restricted, repetitive patterns of behaviour/interests/activities (≥2 of: stereotyped/repetitive motor movements; insistence on sameness/inflexible routines; highly restricted interests; hyper/hyporeactivity to sensory input) C. Symptoms present in early developmental period (may not fully manifest until social demands exceed capacity) D. Cause clinically significant impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning
B. Several symptoms present before age 12 C. Symptoms present in ≥2 settings (e.g. home, school, work, with friends) D. Clear evidence of interference with or reduction in quality of social, academic, or occupational functioning

ADHD (comorbid in ~50%; social deficits not as pervasive; no RRBs - code both when criteria independently met); Social anxiety disorder (fear of negative evaluation; social motivation and desire intact); Social (pragmatic) communication disorder (social deficits without RRBs - mutually exclusive with ASD)
Anxiety disorders (worry-driven inattention; no early-onset hyperactivity; no developmental pattern); Major depressive disorder (concentration impairment episode-bound; not developmental); Bipolar disorder (episodic; not chronic developmental pattern)
