Mapping the Needs of Adults with Autism and Co-Morbid Intellectual Disability

AbstractWith less than 2 % of autism research funding di-rected towards adults, the health-related needs of adults on the autism spectrum are relatively poorly understood. Poorer still is our understanding of the needs of those adults with comor-bid autism and intellectual disability. This lack of understand-ing represents a significant knowledge gap, particularly given that the needs of this group are likely to be unique and nu-anced. In this paper, we attempt to map the limited evidence base relating to the physical health of adults living with co-morbid autism and intellectual disability and present a com-mentary on this obviously overlooked group. Specifically, we explore prevalence of and physical health-related needs among adults with comorbid autism and intellectual disability and the availability of evidence-based guidelines for health professionals. It is apparent that a distinct research agenda relating to comorbid autism and intellectual disability—par-ticularly as it relates to adulthood and physical health—does not exist. Consequently, we have had to explore the separate intellectual disability and autism literatures to better understand where research gaps lie. In doing so, we hope to offer a synthesised approach to an otherwise disparate body of literature to inform future, and urgently needed, research ef-forts aiming to improve health and wellbeing among adults with comorbid autism and intellectual disability.
