Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) tend to experience difficulties with emotion regulation (ER). Treatments designed to address ER difficulties in individuals with ASD are emerging. The authors review cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based treatments that have focused on ER difficulties in youth and young adults with ASD. In general, these treatments addressing ER skills have included awareness of emotions/psychoeducation about emotions, frustration tolerance, and ER skills, as well as practice and use of these skills during group therapy that sometimes includes caregivers. The results from these interventions are encouraging for individuals with high-functioning ASD because ER skills tend to improve following treatment. The inclusion of ER in other ASD treatments is discussed.

情绪调节：自闭症谱系障碍的治疗目标。

自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的个体倾向于在情绪调节（ER）方面遇到困难。旨在解决ASD患者ER困难的治疗方法正在兴起。作者回顾了认知行为疗法（CBT）和基于正念的疗法，这些疗法的重点是ASD青年和年轻人的ER困难。通常，这些针对ER技能的治疗方法包括对情绪的情感意识/心理教育，沮丧容忍度和ER技能，以及在有时包括看护人的团体治疗中的练习和使用这些技能。这些干预措施的结果对于具有高功能ASD的患者而言是令人鼓舞的，因为ER技能在治疗后趋于改善。讨论了将ER包括在其他ASD治疗中。
