A systematic review of interventions for feeding-related behaviors for individuals with autism spectrum disorders

Outcomes were more often positive for food acceptance and less often positive for problematic mealtime behavior. More research is needed, particularly in typical contexts with indigenous implementers and including component analyses, feasibility assessment, and social validity measurement. Feeding interventions should be selected based on identified caregiver priorities (e.g., focus on problematic mealtime behavior or food acceptance) and should include consideration of behavioral function and less restrictive interventions.
