This study aimed to review Korean and foreign treatment outcome studies on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and to provide treatment guidelines for persons with ASD. After summarizing the diagnostic criteria, clinical features, prevalence, and comorbidity of ASD, reviews of treatment outcome studies on ASD published outside Korea were examined to identify the evidence-based treatments for ASD. Twenty-seven specific intervention techniques were identified. Articles published in Korean journals were then analyzed using the same criteria. Subsequently, findings on the effectiveness of a technology-based intervention, a new form of treatment, were summarized based on treatment outcome studies published abroad and in Korea. The present results showed that treatment programs based on the principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA) are effective in improving the functions and abilities of persons with ASD and in reducing ASD symptoms. Based on these results, treatment guidelines for ASD are provided and future directions for domestic studies are suggested.
