through with these standards contributes to the accuracy of the study, and
conclusions for this study, because if these standards are not followed the
results could be invalid, taking away from the authors credibility, and
ultimately the ethos of the entire study. These terms can also be used to

autism possesses in the authors own culture, which could be why the
