患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的高功能个体数量的增加可能会导致对中学后机会的兴趣增加，包括授予学位的学院和大学课程。为了提供一个了解目前的证据基础，支持个人与ASD在高等教育，本文报告的结果，系统回顾的文献与ASD的大学生。总体而言，描述69名个体的20篇文章符合纳入标准。文章和参与者的数量很少，表明对这一主题的研究很少，其中只有两项研究是实验性的。这些研究分别描述了视频自我建模干预和咨询干预。文献中还有18个“案例研究”，描述了从焦虑到住房问题等各种困难。这篇评论阐明了我们对ASD患者有效的大学规划的理解的局限性。
The increase in the number of higher-functioning individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is likely to lead to an increased interest in postsecondary opportunities including degree-granting college and university programs. To provide an understanding of the current evidence-base for supporting individuals with ASD in higher education, this article reports the results of a systematic review of the literature concerning college students with ASD. Overall, 20 articles describing 69 individuals met the inclusion criteria. This small number of articles and participants indicates the scarcity of research on this topic and only two of these studies were experimental in nature. These studies described a video-self modeling intervention and a counseling intervention respectively. Eighteen "case studies" were also present in the literature that described difficulties ranging from anxiety to housing concerns. This review deliniates the limitation of our understanding of effective college programming for individuals with ASD.
