| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have been investigating why Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) have increased during the last few decades or why discourses of ASD have increased. As the research and collecting data, we considered the discourse of ASD in the newspapers, reviewed the books written by people with ASD, and interviewed people who work in settings related to ASD. As a conclusion, we made a sociological hypothesis about increase of (the discourse of) ASD.
