The signs and symptoms that were once part of an Asperger’s diagnosis now fall under ASD.
There are historical differences between the term “Asperger’s” and what’s considered “autism.”

About Asperger’s Syndrome
Asperger’s syndrome was previously considered a “mild” or “high-functioning” form of autism.
This means people who received an Asperger’s diagnosis tended to experience behaviors of autism that were often considered minimally different from those of neurotypical people.
Asperger’s was first introduced into the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) in 1994.
