When we talk about neurobehavioral disorders, we talk about disturbance in cognition or memory (slow to remember), and the etiology is assumed to be either a "general medical condition" or a substance (drug of abuse, medication, toxin).

What doctors are needed for diagnosis of asperger's?

A neurologist and a psychiatrist are the best specialists to diagnose Asperger's. If a pediatrician suspects it, s/he should refer you to a neurologist who specializes in neurodevelopmental disorders, or to a psychiatrist who specializes in neurobehavioral disorders. The best scenario is when an Aspie has both a neurologist and a psychiatrist as part of his medical team, coordinated by a primary care physician / pediatrician. In adulthood, an Aspie will want the same type of doctors but move on from the pediatric level to the physicians who treat adults with developmental disabilities.

Is the term ADD for kids or adults?

ADD is an acronym for attention-deficit disorder which exists in both children and adults. This term is since depreciated but is sometimes used to refer to a type of ADHD. ADHD is a neurobehavioral developmental disorder that is characterized by having a combination of attentional problems and hyperactivity, which each occurring infrequently alone. ADHD has three subtypes: predominantly hyperactive-impulsive, predominately inattentive, or combined hyperactive-impulsive and inattentive. ADD is sometimes used to refer to subtype two (predominately inattentive) since it regards more to attention as opposed to hyperactivity. The name is then shortened to ADD. This is not medically correct, but is still commonly in use. ADHD of all three subtypes can exist in both children and adults.
