Abstract:
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) subjects can present temporary behaviors of acute agitation and aggressiveness, named problem behaviors. They have been shown to be consistent with the self-organized criticality (SOC), a model wherein occasionally occurring "catastrophic events" are necessary in order to maintain a self-organized "critical equilibrium." The SOC can represent the psychopathology network structures and additionally suggests that they can be considered as self-organized systems.
