Individuals with autism spectrum disorders and other developmental disabilities (ASD/DD) often need to be explicitly taught personal hygiene skills (e.g., menstrual care, penile care and washing and cleaning of intimate body parts). The taboo and private nature of intimate care skills has often led practitioners to avoid teaching these skills which may leave individuals with ASD/DD more vulnerable to abuse and other health concerns. The purpose of the current synthesis was to examine interventions to teach intimate care skills to individuals with ASD/DD, and examine the social validity of these interventions. The findings suggest that interventions for acquisition of personal hygiene skills can benefit individuals with ASD/DD. Strengths, limitations, and suggestions for future research are discussed.
