Produktbeschreibung
Children with autism report significantly higher rates of social anxiety disorder (SAD) and significantly higher levels of SAD symptomatology than the general population, but it is not clear if this is true for adults with autism. Understanding SAD in an adult autism population could influence screening and treatment options. This systemic review of literature aimed to identify literature related to whether adults with autism experience SAD at a higher rate and report higher levels of symptomatology than the general or psychiatric populations. A search of 5 databases returned a total of 1,369 articles, 180 of which were subjected to full-text review. Of these, 11 met established inclusion criteria. The interpretation of results was complicated by diverse sampling techniques, make up of comparison groups, presentation of data and additional cultural factors, yet the majority of the articles found evidence that adults with autism experience SAD at a significantly higher rate and significantly higher levels of symptoms than general psychiatric and neurotypical populations. The current gaps in the evidence base highlight the need for improved understanding of how SAD develops and is maintained in an adult autism population.
