Explanation:
In psychology and according to the DSM-V, the Autism Spectrum Disorder is a psychopathology disorder which has the following criteria for diagnosis:
- Deficits in social communication and interactions with other people: reduced sharing of interest of conversations with other people, s<u>peaking only a few words, difficulties to make eye contact.</u>
- Restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities: echolalia, repetitive behaviors, inflexible adherence to routines.
This symptoms are not explained by another illness or mental condition.

We can see that <u>he is showing deficits in social communication as well as repetitive patterns of behavior. </u>Therefore, he would probably be diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder
