Summary
This online article summarizes a research study which examined the effect of a mindfulness therapy intervention on mental health symptoms in adults with autism. Individuals in the treatment group later showed less depression, anxiety, and rumination than waitlist controls, suggesting that the intervention was effective.
The Autism Spectrum Disorders Treatment and Care Research group, based out of York University, writes summaries of research studies on autism and developmental disabilities to inform parents, individuals with autism, practitioners, and the general public on recent findings about autism.
