The present research paper aims to comprehensively examine the interplay of medical,
psychological, and social factors associated with ASD and their collective impact on
the manifestation of behavioral problems in individuals on the autism spectrum. Through
an extensive literature review and synthesis of current research, this paper provides
insights into the genetic and neurobiological underpinnings of ASD, the role of
psychological processes, and the influence of social factors. Furthermore, the paper
explores how these factors contribute to the development of behavioral challenges
such as difficulties in social interactions, communication, repetitive behaviors, sensory
sensitivities, and executive functioning. Recognizing the interconnectedness of these
elements is essential for developing holistic and effective interventions to support
individuals with ASD and improve their overall quality of life
