For individuals with ASD, impairments in physical and mental health [Jones et al, 2015;Moss, Howlin, Savage, Bolton, & Rutter, 2015;Simonoff et al, 2008;Totsika, Hastings, Emerson, Lancaster, & Berridge, 2011] and adaptive and cognitive functioning [Bal, Kim, Cheong, & Lord, 2015;Shattuck, Narendorf et al, 2012] limit activity levels and restrict full participation in society through recreation, school and vocation [Baldwin, Costley, & Warren, 2014;Keen, Webster, & Ridley, 2015;Nicholas, Attridge, Zwaigenbaum, & Clarke, 2015;White, Scahill et al, 2007].
