National Counselor Exam Prep (NCE)

Answer - D - Persons with autism spectrum disorders may not be good candidates for group work. Persons involved in group work need to have clear mental abilities, be able to focus on the here and now, and be capable of interacting socially, providing support and feedback when needed. People with autism spectrum disorders are more inwardly focused, have difficulty interacting with others, and may not have the communication skills necessary to participate in a group format.
