Abstract

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects social and communication development with a pattern of restricted and repetitive behaviours. ASD is also associated with high rates of co-existing psychiatric disorders. In an effort to identify characteristics of the family environment that may influence the course of co-existing psychiatric disorders in children with ASD, researchers have explored the phenomenon of expressed emotion (EE). EE is a construct of the affective relationship between two people, with domains characterized by criticism, warmth, relationship and emotional over- involvement. The current study aims to provide a review of the construct of EE, how it is measured and applied to parent–child relationships in typical development children and in ASD population and to describe the Spanish cultural adaptation and content validity of the Manual of ASFMSS (Autism Specify Five Minutes Sample Speech).
