| Zusammenfassung: | People with nonverbal autism are an underresearched group. Spirituality is fundamental to all humanness; therefore, the spirituality of these people is worthy of exploration. A scoping literature review involving comprehensive searches of empirical literature was conducted in three phases, with main themes identified. Gaps in academic literature prompted a further two search phases focused on nonacademic works. Little empirical research exists concerning the spirituality of people with nonverbal autism. Nonacademic literature provides a valuable source of information on this topic. This research forms part of a continuing study, so it is limited to identifying research gaps and future research directions. |
