Susan W. White is Professor and Doddridge Saxon Chair in Clinical Psychology at The University of Alabama, where she directs the Center for Youth Development and Intervention. Her clinical and research interests include development and evaluation of psychosocial treatments that target transdiagnostic processes underlying psychopathology. She has co-authored over 100 peer-reviewed articles and several books and chapters. Her research has been funded by the National Institute of Mental Health and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development as well as several foundations. Brenna Maddox is a postdoctoral fellow and clinical psychologist at the Penn Center for Mental Health, located at the University of Pennsylvania. Her research program focuses on the intersection of autism services and implementation science. Her clinical interests include the assessment and treatment of commonly co-occurring difficulties within autism, such as anxiety and depression, and the communitydiagnosis of ASD in adults. Dr. Maddox is an Associate Editor for the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders and Autism in Adulthood.Carla Mazefsky an Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. Her research involves investigations of mechanisms underlying emotion regulation, psychiatric and behavioral problems in ASD, and the development of new assessment and treatment approaches. She is an Associate Editor for the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders. She has had federal (National Institutes of Health, Department of Defense, National Science Foundation) and foundation funding for her research, and her research has been recognized by the Ritvo-Slifka Award for Innovation in Autism Research from the International Society for Autism Research.

I feel that this Handbook belongs in the personal/professional library of any and all individuals studying or serving the autistic population at this time.
