According to a new Rutgers study, documented cases of autism spectrum disorder in the New York–New Jersey metro region increased by as much as 500% between 2000 and 2016 among kids without any intellectual disabilities.
“What our paper shows is that this assumption is not true,” Shenouda said. “In fact, in this study, two-in-three children with autism had no intellectual disability whatsoever.”, researchers identified 4,661 8-year-olds with ASD in four New Jersey counties during the study period. Of these, 1,505 had an intellectual disability; 2,764 did not.
“Better awareness of and testing for ASD does play a role,” said Walter Zahorodny, associate professor at the Rutgers New Jersey Medical School and senior author on the study. “But the fact that we saw a 500 percent increase in autism among kids without any intellectual disabilities – children we know are falling through the cracks – suggests that something else is also driving the surge.”
