Autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are included in a wide variety of neurological and cognitive disorders referred to as neurodivergent conditions. Individuals with autism may experience diverse conditions within a spectrum medically classified as autism spectrum disorders (ASD).  

The objective of this scoping review is to identify current literature reporting on prevalence of autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with or without co-occurring learning disability in individuals of any age living in the United Kingdom. The review will aim to summarise reported prevalence estimates and examine the methodological characteristics of prevalence studies.

Review questions:

1. What is the current estimate of the prevalence of autism, ADHD with or without learning disabilities in the UK?

2. Which methodologies are used to determine prevalence estimates?

3. How do the estimates vary by age, sex/gender, race/ethnicity, region or setting?
