Evaluating the Effectiveness of an Autism-Specific Workplace Tool for Employers: A Randomised Controlled Trial / Melissa SCOTT in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-10 (October 2018)
[article]
Titre : Evaluating the Effectiveness of an Autism-Specific Workplace Tool for Employers: A Randomised Controlled Trial Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melissa SCOTT, Auteur ; Marita FALKMER, Auteur ; Torbjörn FALKMER, Auteur ; Sonya GIRDLER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3377-3392 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Complex intervention Hiring Vocational support Work environment Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A randomised controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of the Integrated Employment Success Tool (IEST™) in improving employers’ self-efficacy in modifying the workplace for individuals on the autism spectrum. Employers (N?=?84) were randomised to the IEST™ or support as usual groups. Measurements of self-efficacy, knowledge and attitudes towards disability in the workplace were obtained at baseline and post-test. Results revealed a significant improvement in self-efficacy within the IEST™ group between baseline and post-test (p?=?0.016). At post-test, there were no significant differences between groups in relation to self-efficacy in implementing autism-specific workplace modifications and employer attitudes towards disability in the workplace. Given the lack of significant outcomes, further research is needed to determine the effectiveness of the IEST™ for employers.

Titre : Multi-informant International Perspectives on the Facilitators and Barriers to Employment for Autistic Adults Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melissa H. BLACK, Auteur ; Soheil MAHDI, Auteur ; Benjamin MILBOURN, Auteur ; Melissa SCOTT, Auteur ; Alan GERBER, Auteur ; Christopher ESPOSITO, Auteur ; Marita FALKMER, Auteur ; Matthew D LERNER, Auteur ; Alycia K. HALLADAY, Auteur ; Eva STRÖM, Auteur ; Axel D'ANGELO, Auteur ; Torbjörn FALKMER, Auteur ; Sven BÖLTE, Auteur ; Sonya GIRDLER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1195-1214 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adults autism cross-cultural employment key stakeholders Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Employment rates for autistic individuals are poor, even compared to those from other disability groups. Internationally, there remains limited understanding of the factors influencing employment across the stages of preparing for, gaining, and maintaining employment. This is the third in a series of studies conducted as part of an International Society for Autism Research (INSAR) policy brief intended to improve employment outcomes for autistic individuals. A multi-informant international survey with five key stakeholder groups, including autistic individuals, their families, employers, service providers, and researchers, was undertaken in Australia, Sweden, and the United States to understand the facilitators and barriers to employment for autistic adults. A total of 687 individuals participated, including autistic individuals (n = 246), family members (n = 233), employers (n = 35), clinicians/service providers (n = 123), and researchers (n = 50). Perceptions of the facilitators and barriers to employment differed significantly across both key stakeholder groups and countries, however, ensuring a good job match and focusing on strengths were identified by all groups as important for success. Key barriers to employment included stigma, a lack of understanding of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and communication difficulties. Results suggest that a holistic approach to employment for autistic individuals is required, aimed at facilitating communication between key stakeholders, addressing attitudes and understanding of ASD in the workplace, using strength-based approaches and providing early work experience.

LAY SUMMARY: Autistic individuals experience significant difficulty getting and keeping a job. This article presents a survey study involving autistic individuals, their families, employers, service providers and researchers in Australia, Sweden, and the United States to understand their perspectives on the factors that support or act as barriers to employment. While perspectives varied across key stakeholders, strategies such as using a holistic approach, targeting workplace attitudes and understanding, focusing on strengths, and providing early work experience are important for success.
