The topic of camouflaging, masking, and compensatory behaviors as it relates to autistics/individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder has seen increasing discussions both in the peer reviewed literature and at professional conferences. Some professionals claim there is a link between those autistics/ individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder who received behavioral intervention and demonstrating camouflaging, masking, and compensatory behaviors. The purpose of this literature review was to evaluate the current state of experimental and non-experimental research on camouflaging, masking, and compensatory behaviors as it relates to autistics/individuals diagnosed with ASD. Additionally, the researchers evaluated the link between behavioral intervention and camouflaging, masking, and compensatory behaviors for autistics/ individuals diagnosed with ASD. Future directions both in terms of clinical practice and research are discussed in this paper.
