ABSTRACT
Autistic people with intellectual disabilities appear to be at increased risk of schizophrenia. While current recommendations emphasize adapting interventions used for people with schizophrenia in general, few studies to date have investigated treatment of co-occurring schizophrenia in this specific population. To explore what interventions are provided to autistic people with intellectual disabilities and co-occurring schizophrenia in specialized mental health services, and to investigate whether changes in mental health symptoms and challenging behavior occurred during treatment. Using data from a longitudinal, national multicenter study, interventions provided to 26 autistic individuals with intellectual disabilities and co-occurring schizophrenia were explored. Symptoms were measured using the Psychopathology in Autism Checklist (PAC) and the Aberrant Behavior Checklist ABC) at referral (T1), at the end of treatment (T2), and at follow-up 12 months after T2 (T3). A broad range of interventions were provided to the participants, including inpatient admission, psychopharmacological treatment, various psychosocial interventions, and supportive interventions. Scores on the PAC and ABC were significantly lower at T2 than T1 for most scales, and no significant change was found from T2 to T3.Treatment of co-occurring schizophrenia appears feasible and effective in autistic people with intellectual disabilities.
