VILLAMIL LOZANO, ANDRÉS FELIPE. EXPERIENCE AND ANIMATED BODY IN THE AUTISTIC SPECTRUM EVALUATING THE SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS OF DSM-5. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2017, vol.66, suppl.3, pp.137-156. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v66n3supl.65637.

This article offers a critique of the description of the autistic spectrum disorder as set forth in the fifth and most recent edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), the main tool used by many psychiatrists to understand and diagnose any psychopathology. The article seeks to show that the DSM-5, like the interpretations offered by Baron-Cohen, Leslie, and Frith, disregards the experience and the animated body of the patient, which makes it advisable to adopt a new approach to that disorder from a phenomenological perspective. The article concludes with a sketch of a phenomenology of the autistic spectrum disorder that recognizes the primacy of the animated body in the experience of the world, the self, and others.
