Because selective mutism is a very rare disorder and it disappears by itself over time, it did not draw attention of many mental health professionals. Thus, there have been not been many written texts regarding this topic. The purpose of this literature review is to examine selective mutism and introduce it to the professionals. First, the core features of the disorder, prevalence rates, family etiologies, and co-morbid disorders are examined. Then, the etiological reasons for the disorder, assessments, interventions and treatment options were discussed in lights of the most recent theories and evidence-based findings.
