Support is typically associated with individuals with ASD and their parents, yet the needs of siblings of these individuals are often overlooked. Being a sibling of a person with ASD is linked to various challenges and complex situations that accompany them throughout their lives, influencing their health, personal development, and social integration.</p><p><strong>Eligibility criteria: </strong>Qualitative studies involving neurotypical siblings of individuals with ASD who describe their experiences were eligible for inclusion.

A 3-step search strategy was used to find published and unpublished studies from the following sources: MEDLINE, CINAHL, APA PsycINFO, Scopus, SocINDEX, Web of Science Core Collection, Embase, ERIC, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, Open Dissertations, and Google Scholar (first 100 records).

The synthesis of the results led to the identification of 3 synthesized findings, based on 13 thematic categories, including 289 findings. The overall confidence in the findings was moderate for 2 synthetized findings and high for 1. The first synthesized finding focused on siblings' evolving understanding, sources of information, and acceptance of ASD, as well as broader societal awareness. The second finding addressed the direct impact on sibling identity and lived experiences, encompassing both positive aspects and emotional burdens, alongside caregiving roles and challenging behaviors. The third finding covered unmet support needs, family dynamics, coping strategies, and future perspectives regarding lifelong care demands.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Siblings of people with ASD need to develop an understanding of the disability in order to accept their siblings.
