Bien que les comportements d'autostimulation (p. ex. l'agitation des mains) puissent paraître dérangeants et inadaptés, les personnes ayant un TSA [trouble du spectre de l'autisme] peuvent y avoir recours afin de se réguler dans des situations stressantes ou désagréables. Le recours à ce type de comportement peut alors aider la personne à s'autoréguler et possiblement lui permettre d'éviter une désorganisation plus importante.
