Peer-mediated practices are defined as systems that aim to support children with normal development and their peers with special needs at the same age or similar developmental level in terms of academic or social skills. The aim of this study; To provide up-to-date information on research using different peer-mediated applications to individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and to make recommendations based on results. To this end; A total of 26 articles, which evaluated the effectiveness of peer-mediated practices used to support individuals with ASD in different developmental areas, and which were published in international refereed journals between 2007 and 2017, were examined. The research was achieved as a result of electronic scans in the ERIC, Academic Search Complete and Google Scholar databases. The specified articles are studied in terms of basic visual characteristics, methodological characteristics and the objectives and results of the articles. After all, it has been revealed that the process of associated practices from early childhood to the transition period of adulthood is mostly practices that can be effectively used in the teaching of social interaction, communication, gaming skills, and in the natural or structured teaching environments. In addition, it is believed that the use of co-working practices could make more use of teaching opportunities and the need for research in natural environments and large group arrangements where the possibility of generalization of learned skills increases.
