Advances in Autism

Advances in Autism is unique in its focus on the health and care aspects and outcomes for people with autism.

The journal's content is international in focus and peer-reviewed. It includes research-based articles, evidence-based clinical and support articles, and articles on policy and advances in services where these can be internationally applied.

Key areas of research covered include:

• clinical developments
• people's experience through qualitative research
• policy debates and outcomes
• inclusion and quality of life
• developmental issues
• population and epidemiological studies
• services developments
• evidence-based reviews of key practice issues.

The content of this new journal will be a key tool in building and disseminating evidence to change the way that professionals work with people with autism and to challenge traditional assumptions and ways of working. It will do this by:

• publishing the latest research with a focus on the implications for practice
• becoming a home for emerging research
• increasing awareness of and the profile of the health and care aspects of autism
• keeping readers up-to-date with the latest developments to improve the quality of life for people with autism and autism spectrum disorders.
