I’m also unfamiliar with any data to suggest the increase in rates is anything but a change in diagnostic criteria.
And it’s my field, so I’d OP has data to share, I’d be very appreciative of a link.

- najarvg 7y agoThis link talks about prevalence rates. I don't see anything talking about an increase in autism rates that is not just explained by increase in diagnoses as the OP claimed
- arkades 7y agoRight. These are the precise prevalence numbers that have been addressed in multiple studies showing that the change is attributable to increases in public awareness / detection efforts, and broadened diagnostic criteria. Thank you for digging up a link.
