Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the assessment tools for quality of life of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) at home and abroad, so as to provide a basis for healthcare professionals to select and revise the assessment tools suitable for the quality of life of children with ASD in China.Methods:A scoping review method was used to systematically search the literature on quality of life assessment tools for children with ASD included in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, China Biology Medicine disc and VIP. The search period was from the establishment of the database to March 12, 2025. Literature that met the inclusion criteria was screened, basic information about the assessment tools was extracted, and the search results were reported in a normalized manner.Results:A total of 3 905 articles were retrieved and 29 articles were finally included. Eleven quality of life assessment scales for children with ASD were included, including two scales developed to characterize children with ASD.Conclusions:There is a wide variety of quality of life assessment tools for children with ASD, with good overall reliability and validity, but no standardized indigenous scales are developed in China. Existing quality of life assessment tools for children with ASD should be sinicized and improved, and localized assessment tools should be developed.
