El análisis del autismo, desde una perspectiva interaccionista, pone de manifiesto la falta de fundamento de muchas de las posiciones «cognitivistas» y «afectivistas», mantenidas tradicionalmente en la interpretación del sindrome, y la escasa eficacia de muchos procedimientos terapéuticos basados en tales interpretaciones. La comparación del desarrollo interactivo del niño normal con el del niño autista permite una interpretación más adecuada del sindrome y sugiere vías terapéuticas para su tratamiento eficaz.
