Abstract

This chapter describes pseudoscience and questionable ideas related to autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. The chapter opens by discussing myths that influence treatment such as the idea of “refrigerator mothers.” Dubious treatments include facilitated communication (and its variants), hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment, and auditory integration training. The chapter closes by reviewing research-supported approaches.
