Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This paper proposes a generalized environmental fear hypothesis to explain autism spectrum disorder, suggesting that conditioned fear responses in utero lead to ASD symptoms. The authors argue against using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for this population, hypothesizing that schematic restructuring may induce symptoms associated with CPTSD and schizophrenia. They suggest addressing schemas in reverse order of acquisition as a potential risk reduction strategy.
