Although they share many of the same symptoms, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism are very different disorders.tâs estimated that ADHD affects 3 to 5 percent of kids in the United States. In contrast, autism is a developmental disorder that affects the way a person communicates and interacts with others.
Children with autism exhibit significant deficits in imitation (Smith and Bryson 1994) as well as later emerging social behaviors (APA 2000), leading to the proposal that an early deficit in imitation could disrupt the development of intersubjectivity and lead to broader social impairments in autism (Rogers and Pennington 1991).
