Question

!n the sample excerpt below, indicate (yes or no) if a citation is required (3 marks):

Autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) typically begin in childhood and are characterized by difficulties with social interaction, communication and behavioral flexibility (Reference A). There is a speculative association between between ASDs and violent crime offenders (Reference B). Hippler et al (2010) found that rather than being more likely to engage in violent behavior, individuals with ASD have a higher risk of being the victim rather than the perpetrator. It is necessary to stress these findings regarding neurodevelopment and violent crime in order to avoid stigmatizing an already vulnerable group (Reference C).
