      abstract = {Autism spectrum disorders (hereafter autism) are prevalent  and often associated with elevated rates of substance use  disorders. A subset of people who gamble develop gambling  disorder, which is functionally impairing. Characterization  of relationships between autism and gambling, particularly  as relates to cognition, may have important implications.  We conducted a systematic review of the literature. Nine  out of 343 publications were found eligible for inclusion.  Most studies examined decision-making using cognitive  tasks, showing mixed results (less, equivalent or superior  performance in autistic people compared to non-autistic  people). The most consistent cognitive finding was  relatively slower responses in autistic people on gambling  tasks, compared to non-autistic people. One study reported  a link between problem gambling and autism scores, in  people who gamble at least occasionally. This systematic  review highlights a profound lack of research on the  potential neurocognitive overlap between autism and  gambling. Future work should address the link between  autism and behavioral addictions in adequately powered  samples, using validated tools.},
