Asperger syndrome, or Asperger’s, is a previously used diagnosis on the autism spectrum. In 2013, it became part of one umbrella diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5 (DSM-5).

Thank you, Windmill. I was just about to say that Asperger's is a subset of the Autism Spectrum disorders, but your response was better and more comprehensive.

I will note that my grandson was diagnosed with Asperger's, which adds a layer of complexity to communication with him.
