Psychologists at the University of Kent and the University of East Anglia (UEA) are recruiting volunteers with asperger syndrome or high functioning autism to take part in a new study.
The project, funded by the National Institute for Health Research, will investigate whether group cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for anxiety disorders experienced by those with Asperger syndrome and high functioning autism.
