Abstract
This talk is adapted version of this talk: "An Updated Interest Based Account (Monotropism theory) & a Demand Avoidance Phenomenon discussion." Available at the link below: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332727790_An_Updated_Interest_Based_Account_Monotropism_theory_a_Demand_Avoidance_Phenomenon_discussion I expanded the monotropism section to include a focus on how Trauma, Social, emotional and mental health issues can explain PDA. The talk also provides an update of my current activities. This monotropism talk, details how the theory explains anxiety in autism. Also provides a developmental model that explains PDA in autistic persons. I have left out the slides containing scientific issues with PDA, please see the link above for that information.
