Abstract

Access to effective intervention during childhood supports early development and promotes longer-term quality of life for children on the autism spectrum. There are a large number of interventions available within clinical practice, which vary in their theoretical orientation and practical application. However, no previous review has provided a systematic evaluation and synthesis of the evidence for autism interventions across different intervention types.
