| Summary: | Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder causing an abnormality in one’s social,
communication and behavior. It is diagnosed based on early-emerging social and communication
impairments and the tendency to behave differently than would a normal child. The global statistics
reports an increase in the total statistics from year to year. The main question shed light in this article
is “What are the existing autism screening tools that have the correlation with autism intervention?”.
For this objective, a methodology based on a systematic review is done to identify the existing type of
autism ‘screening’ and intervention. The article search is done from early 1990s to the current year
and involves peer-reviewed journals. It is important for parents to seek for early assistance if their child
shows symptoms of being autistic. The screening process is essential because early detection of
autism may lead to early intervention further enabling a child’s abilities to be improved. Various
screening tools accessible online should be able to tell if a child is autistic. More research should focus
on the autism screening process and tools to prove to the public about the reliability of certain
available screening tools. The objectives of the research are achieved. A lot of information has been
obtained throughout this literature review regarding autism screening and intervention. The
instruments used in the screening process are typically inexpensive and simple to administer, score,
and interpret. The evaluation of the screening measures is based on sensitivity and
specificity. Conclusively, early screening is important because it may contribute to early intervention
which will increase the possibility of an autistic child having a better future. There should be more
research conducted on autism screening itself and the benefits of having an intervention especially in
terms of the social and behavior outcome and family relationship. It is hoped that some information
regarding autism can be disseminated to the public and further actions such as screening can be done
by parents who are concerned about their child development |
