The handbook examines the empirical status of interventions and treatments for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It offers an insightful and balanced perspective on topics ranging from the historical underpinnings of autism treatment to the use of psychopharmacology and the implementation of EBPs. The book reviews the conceptualization of evidence-based practices (EBPs) as well as considerations for implementing such practices across settings. In addition, it describes emerging treatments - though they cannot yet be considered evidence-based - that have produced limited but highly promising results. The book also describes treatments and therapies that have been proved ineffective. It explores ways in which EBPs can be applied in inclusive school settings, pedatric settings, in-patient treatment progams, and college-based programs for transition-aged youth. The volume describes outcomes from the development of EBP guidelines at the national level (in Scotland) and, more broadly, in the United States and outlines how such guidelines can be adapted to offer more individualized intervention.
Key areas of coverage include:
- Comprehensive treatment models, including early intensive behavioral intervention, pivotal response treatment, Early Start Denver Model, and Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions.
- Focal treatments addressing the core deficits of ASD and its co-occuring conditions.
- Social skills, communication, and the use of applied behavior analysis (ABA) practices for teaching new skills and decreasing challenging behaviors.
- Sensory-based interventions, psychopharmacology, cognitive behavior therapy, and parent education programs (e.g., Project ImPACT).
The Handbook of Evidence-Based Practices in Autism Spectrum Disorder is an invaluable resource for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as clinicians, therapists, and all professionals working in the fields of developmental, clinical child, and school psychology, pediatrics, social work, behavior analysis, allied health sciences, public health, child and adolescent psychiatry, early childhood intervention, and general and special education.

Peter Doehring, Ph.D., After a career leading school-, hospital-, and university-based programs in the USA and Canada helping people with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Peter now works as an independent researcher and advocate for better policies and programs at the local, state, and national level, while continuing to publish and present internationally. His focus broadened to children and parents facing the most significant levels of disability when his daughter Margot was born in 2000 with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, cerebral palsy, partial blindness, and a seizure disorder. His work now includes demonstrating how to use evidence-based practices to support people with disabilities in recreation, community volunteering, and environmental stewardship. He has also been active in advocating for legislative changes at the state level, contributing to the passage of important legislation in both Delaware and Pennsylvania.
