Emerging evidence for mindfulness-based interventions for improving mental health in adults with autism has support through a recent systematic review. This includes evidence for decreasing stress, anxiety, ruminating thoughts, anger, and aggression.
[294] [295] Several interventions can help children with autism, [296] and no single treatment is best, with treatment typically tailored to the child's needs. [297] Studies of interventions have methodological problems that prevent definitive conclusions about efficacy, [298] but the development of evidence-based interventions has advanced. [299]
[32] [33] ABA methodologies such as differential reinforcement, extinction, and task analysis, are among the most well-researched evidence-based practices for autism intervention. [34] ABA therapy is primarily provided by registered behavior technicians (RBTs) and board certified behavior analysts (BCBAs) to children and adults with autism. [35]
Social Stories are a concept devised by Carol Gray in 1991 to improve the social skills of people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). [3] The objective is to share information, which is often through a description of the events occurring around the subject and also why. [4]

Mesibov and Eric Schopler describe TEACCH as the United Kingdom's most common intervention used with children with autism. In Europe and the United States, it ...
The intervention is often used in conjunction with the Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) as it primes the child for an easy transition between treatment types. The PECS program serves as another common intervention technique used to conform individuals with autism.
Developmental interventions focus on a child's ability to form positive, meaningful relationships with other people when these are hampered by autism spectrum disorders such as autism or Asperger syndrome, or developmental disorders. It aims to build on the child's current communicative repertoire, even if this is unconventional; and using more ...
The current report updates and extends the work on evidence-based, focused intervention practices begun with an initial review of the literature from 1997 to 2007 (Odom et al. 2010a, b) and extended through a second report that covered the literature from 1990 to 2011 (Wong et al. 2015); extending this systematic review through 2017 added 567 ...
