About Autism Spectrum Quarterly

Autism Spectrum Quarterly is an outstanding and highly unique international publication that represents a new genre in the field of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). As the one and only MAGAJOURNAL®, ASQ’s mission is to serve as the information leader and bridge between the research and general autism communities. Its aim is to bring its readers the high-interest articles they want AND the reader-friendly, cutting-edge science news they need. To accomplish this, ASQ brings together outstanding researchers, well-respected professionals, exceptional parents, and highly articulate individuals with ASD. With its well-respected and extraordinarily knowledgeable editors and its world-renowned advisory board, ASQ is your one-stop, gold-standard resource to keep family members, professionals, and people on the spectrum up-to-date and on the same page!

 

ASQ is THE MAGAJOURNAL®

ASQ is described as "THE MAGAJOURNAL®" to underscore that it combines the readability and interest of a high-level magazine with the substance and depth of a professional journal. It is this combined focus that distinguishes ASQ from other publications of its type, and creates an important niche in the world of autism publications that has heretofore been lacking. Each issue features a line of research and commentary aimed at helping parents, teachers, and clinicians to translate this research into practice.
