The Causes of Autism

The World's 1st Multi-Literature Autism Research Conglomerate

Notice: Scientific inquiry on TheCausesofAutism.com is protected to the full extent of the Constitution of the United States of America under 1st Amendment rights. This is a library of scientific research interpretation and investigation. No medical advice is intended or provided. Publications are a working-dissertation subject to updates in hypotheses, postulations, research questions, etc. as the massive literature is reviewed.

Dissertation Mission Statements

  1. To arrive at objective truth regarding the causes of autism.
  2. To arrive at objective truth regarding treatments for autism, based upon factors that may cause autism.
  3. To retain objectivity, humility, and logic that both encompasses yet is beyond scientific research.
  4. To remember that science can be prone to error due to methodology, data analysis, confounding variables, study limitations, and other factors that may inhibit the arrival at truth.
  5. To highlight relevant research future parents can be aware of to mitigate the risk of autism in their offspring.
  6. To highlight relevant research current parents of children with autism can be aware of to improve autism symptoms in their children.
  7. To highlight relevant research adults with autism can be aware of to improve their own autism symptoms.
  8. To hold and remember that “Truth is verifiable only by identity with it, and not by knowing about it.” -Dr. David R. Hawkins
  9. To remember that truth is simple; and what is true withstands the test of time.

Causality and the DSM

My most recent hypotheses/understanding regarding ‘causality’ is best reflected through the following publication:

Autism Librarian (2026, April 28). Hypothesizing More Equations: Did Aristotle Miss a Linguistic Fallacy? https://thecausesofautism.com/2026/04/28/hypothesizing-more-equations-did-aristotle-miss-a-linguistic-fallacy/

The DSM criteria for autism is behavioral; it does not consider physiological factors associated with autism (oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysregulation, toxic metals, etc.).

The DSM criteria are a set of guidelines, a threshold, if you will, for diagnosing autism. However, it could be considered that an individual, young or old, may exhibit a small subset of symptoms of the autism DSM criteria [for example, diminished socio-emotional reciprocity] due to some personal exposure to a factor associated with autism, but not qualify for a diagnosis. Remember, ‘autism’ is just a label for a condition whose behavior/developmental-parameters (the DSM criteria) are subject to change/updates.
