History

• Founding: the journal was founded in 2008 by the International Society for Autism Research (INSAR) to provide a dedicated peer-reviewed venue for autism research, reflecting the growth of the field in the early twenty-first century.创刊： 该刊 2008 年由国际自闭症研究学会（INSAR）创刊，为自闭症研究提供专门的同行评审平台，反映该领域在二十一世纪初的发展。
• INSAR official journal: throughout its history the journal has been the official journal of the International Society for Autism Research, serving as a leading venue for multidisciplinary autism research.INSAR 官方期刊： 在整个历史中该刊一直是国际自闭症研究学会的官方期刊，是多学科自闭症研究的重要平台。
• Wiley publication: the journal is published by Wiley on behalf of INSAR and has grown to become one of the most highly cited journals dedicated to autism spectrum disorder research.Wiley 出版： 该刊由威利代表 INSAR 出版，已发展为专注于自闭症谱系障碍研究的最高引期刊之一。

Editors

The journal is led by an editor-in-chief supported by associate editors and an editorial board:该刊由主编领导，副编辑与编委会协助工作：

• Editor-in-chief: Diana Schendel, of Drexel University, Pennsylvania, whose research focuses on the epidemiology of autism spectrum disorder, environmental risk factors, and population-based approaches to understanding autism.主编： 黛安娜·申德尔（Diana Schendel），任职于宾夕法尼亚州德雷塞尔大学，研究方向为自闭症谱系障碍流行病学、环境风险因素以及理解自闭症的基于人群的方法。
• Associate editors: associate editors cover the major areas within the journal's scope, from genetics and neuroscience to development, behavior, and intervention research.副编辑团队： 副编辑覆盖刊物范围内从遗传与神经科学到发展、行为与干预研究的主要领域。
• Review model: manuscripts undergo single-blind peer review by external experts, with final decisions made by the editor-in-chief based on scientific rigor, novelty, and relevance to autism spectrum disorder research.评审模式： 稿件由外部专家进行单盲同行评审，主编基于科学严谨性、新颖性与对自闭症谱系障碍研究的相关性做出最终决定。
