Abstract

COST project entitled ESSEA (Enhancing the Scientific Study of Early Autism) (2010-2014) is aimed to establish an interdisciplinary scientific European network to improve the detection of the earliest signs of autism, as well as to combine techniques from cognitive neuroscience with those from clinical sciences in order to establish practice guidelines on early identification and intervention of autism. The main conclusion for Macedonia was: there are not specialized teachers for autistic children, there are no day care centers, and there is not additional help for parents; prescribed medicaments (especially non specific antipsychotics) are much more than usual, the use of alternative therapies is much more present although it is not based on evidence.
