Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This systematic review examines how anxiety and mood disorder measures are adapted for use with autistic adults, focusing on the types of modifications, adaptation processes, and stakeholder involvement. The authors analyzed 32 studies to identify gaps in reporting transparency and psychometric validation, noting that few adaptations involved input from autistic individuals. This resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in the methodological rigor and inclusivity of mental health assessment tools for this population.
