Strength-based interventions are specifically studied in the context of autism to address the unique needs of the spectrum, as evidenced by research proposing tailored mechanisms of change for autistic individuals [1], [2]. Furthermore, these interventions require flexibility due to the inherent heterogeneity of the autism population [3], while current research highlights a need to further develop these models specifically for autistic populations compared to non-autistic ones [4], [5].
