Abstract

In the last five years, the literature on animal-assisted intervention (AAI) for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has doubled in size from 42 studies prior to 2015 to 85 studies (cumulative total assessed in 2020). Horses remain the most commonly researched animal for AAI, followed by dogs. The most commonly researched outcome was social interaction, across 21 studies. Though the quantity of studies has increased, issues with methodological rigor remain. Results highlight the need for a continued focus on methodological rigor as well as refining the structure of animal-assisted interventions, addressing the welfare needs of the animals involved, and continuing to establish an evidence base of both significant and nonsignificant findings for AAI for individuals with ASD.

自闭症谱系障碍的动物辅助干预:2016年至2020年文献的系统综述。
在过去五年中,关于自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)动物辅助干预(AAI)的文献数量翻了一番,从2015年之前的42项研究增加到85项研究(2020年评估的累计总数)。马仍然是AAI最常见的研究动物,其次是狗。在21项研究中,最常见的研究结果是社会互动。尽管研究数量有所增加,但方法严谨的问题仍然存在。研究结果强调,需要继续关注方法的严谨性,完善动物辅助干预的结构,解决相关动物的福利需求,并继续为ASD患者的AAI的重要和非重要发现建立证据基础。

期刊介绍: The Review Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders publishes original articles that provide critical reviews of topics across the broad interdisciplinary research fields of autism spectrum disorders. Topics range from basic to applied and include but are not limited to genetics, neuroscience, diagnosis, applied behavior analysis, psychopharmacology, incidence, prevalence, etiology, differential diagnosis, treatment, measurement of treatment effects, education, perception and cognition. Topics across the life span are appropriate. In addition, given the high rates of comorbid conditions, the interface of sleep disorders, feeding problems, motor difficulties, ADHD, anxiety, depression and other disorders with autism spectrum disorders are appropriate. The Journal aims for an international audience as reflected in the editorial board.
