Citation Weitlauf AS, McPheeters ML, Peters B, Sathe N, Travis R, Aiello R, Williamson E, Veenstra-VanderWeele J, Krishnaswami S, Jerome R, Warren Z. Therapies for children with autism spectrum disorder: behavioral interventions update. Rockville: Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). Comparative Effectiveness Review No. 137. 2014 Authors' objectives We updated a prior systematic review of interventions for children (0–12 years) with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), focusing on recent studies of behavioral interventions. Authors' conclusions A growing evidence base suggests that behavioral interventions can be associated with positive outcomes for children with ASD. Despite improvements in the quality of the included literature, a need remains for studies of interventions across settings and continued improvements in methodologic rigor. Substantial scientific advances are needed to enhance our viunderstanding of which interventions are most effective for specific children with ASD and to isolate elements or components of interventions most associated with effects.
