Ethiopian community health workers' beliefs and attitudes towards children with autism: Impact of a brief training intervention / D. TILAHUN in Autism, 23-1 (January 2019)

Titre : Ethiopian community health workers' beliefs and attitudes towards children with autism: Impact of a brief training intervention Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : D. TILAHUN, Auteur ; A. FEKADU, Auteur ; B. TEKOLA, Auteur ; M. ARAYA, Auteur ; I. ROTH, Auteur ; B. DAVEY, Auteur ; C. HANLON, Auteur ; R. A. HOEKSTRA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.39-49 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : attitude autism spectrum disorder community health workers developing countries developmental disabilities Ethiopia stigma mental-health low-income illness disorders africa guangzhou knowledge people staff Psychology Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is a severe shortage of services for children with autism in Ethiopia; access to services is further impeded by negative beliefs and stigmatising attitudes towards affected children and their families. To increase access to services, care provision is decentralised through task-shifted care by community health extension workers. This study aimed to examine the impact of a brief training (Health Education and Training; HEAT) for Ethiopian rural health extension workers and comprised three groups: (1) health extension workers who completed a basic mental health training module (HEAT group, N = 104); (2) health extension workers who received enhanced training, comprising basic HEAT as well as video-based training on developmental disorders and a mental health pocket guide (HEAT+ group, N = 97); and (3) health extension workers untrained in mental health (N = 108). All participants completed a questionnaire assessing beliefs and social distance towards children with autism. Both the HEAT and HEAT+ group showed fewer negative beliefs and decreased social distance towards children with autism compared to the untrained health extension worker group, with the HEAT+ group outperforming the HEAT group. However, HEAT+ trained health extension workers were less likely to have positive expectations about children with autism than untrained health extension workers. These findings have relevance for task-sharing and scale up of autism services in low-resource settings worldwide.

Titre : Looking good but feeling bad: "Camouflaging" behaviors and mental health in women with autistic traits Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jonathan S. BECK, Auteur ; Rebecca A. LUNDWALL, Auteur ; Terisa GABRIELSEN, Auteur ; Jonathan C. COX, Auteur ; Mikle SOUTH, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.809-821 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum camouflage diagnosis disorders female mental health women Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Women who try to hide or "camouflage" their autistic traits are likely to report that they feel distressed, think of suicide, and/or struggle to function in everyday life. We asked 58 women with autistic traits to complete questionnaires about camouflaging and mental health. Most of these women did not have a formal diagnosis of autism, yet a majority reported that they camouflaged autistic traits, and a large majority reported significant mental health challenges. Some researchers have suggested that women with autistic traits are more likely than autistic men to experience mental health challenges because women may try more to "fit in" socially by camouflaging their autistic traits. Analyses showed that camouflaging was associated with feeling distressed (depressed, anxious, and/or stressed). For women who reported above-average levels of camouflaging, camouflaging was also associated with having thoughts about suicide and struggling to function in everyday life. Trying to camouflage autistic traits was associated with mental health challenges, regardless of whether those traits were very mild or more severe. The findings of this study may influence how mental health professionals evaluate and treat women with autistic traits.
