Characteristics Checklist for Asperger's Syndrome

This appendix contains a description of the characteristics displayed by children and teens with Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism. Once again, because our approach is practical, we provide descriptions of the characteristics, rather than merely listing them. By describing what a particular characteristic will look like when displayed, you will have a clearer picture of which characteristics of Asperger's syndrome or autism may be present in your child. 

The characteristic list is presented in a checklist format. We encourage you to copy this checklist and share it with all those involved with your child. It will be useful in determining an initial diagnosis. Later, it will help those working with your child to better understand how particular attributes are translated into behaviors. It is important to remember that the more you understand Asperger behaviors and the reasons behind them in order to better understand how to meet your child's needs.
