What Is Asperger's Syndrome?
2. Causes of Asperger Syndrome
When Hans Asperger described the condition for the first time, he noticed that there were many common symptoms among the patient’s family members, especially fathers. Further research was conducted and the results indicated that there could be a genetic contribution to Asperger’s.
However, this genetic factor has not yet been identified. It is also believed that there might be multiple factors playing different roles in the expression of the disease.
