Abstract:   (431 Views)
The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the extend of adjustment difficulties encountered by siblings of children with Autism spectrum disorder. In addition, it attempts to get a better understanding of previous research carried out in this area. Methods: the 32 articles relevant to the topic were critically appraised using electronic databases. Results: this study looked at variables such as: cultural influences, social embarrassment, parental stress and depression, behaviour problems of the child with ASD, symptom severity, broader autism phenotype, and birth order. Conclusion: in order to properly test study efficacy, larger samples and randomised design studies are needed to conduct more rigorous empirical research in this area.
