Brief Report: Character Strengths in Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder Without Intellectual Impairment / Jennifer KIRCHNER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-10 (October 2016)
[article]
Titre : Brief Report: Character Strengths in Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder Without Intellectual Impairment Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jennifer KIRCHNER, Auteur ; Willibald RUCH, Auteur ; Isabel DZIOBEK, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3330-3337 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Adults Character strengths Satisfaction with life Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In the current study, we assessed character strengths in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD, n = 32) and neurotypical controls (n = 32) using the Values in Action Inventory (VIA-IS, Peterson and Seligman 2004) and explored associations with levels of satisfaction with life (SWL). The most frequently endorsed signature strengths (i.e., five top-ranked strengths within an individual’s strength ranking) were emotional (humour, love) and interpersonal strengths (kindness, fairness) in the control group, the most frequently endorsed signature strengths in the ASD group were intellectual strengths (open-mindedness, creativity, love of learning). Interpersonal and emotional strengths had, however, the highest positive associations with SWL in the ASD group.

Titre : Positive psychology in neurodiversity: An investigation of character strengths in autistic adults in the United Kingdom in a community setting Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Alicja Sabina NOCON, Auteur ; Amanda ROESTORF, Auteur ; Luz Maria Gutiérrez MENÃNDEZ, Auteur Article en page(s) : 102071 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic adults Autism spectrum Character strengths Positive Psychology Strengths-based Interventions Satisfaction with Life Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background The positive psychology and neurodiversity movements both aim to promote and improve wellbeing through strengths-based approaches. However, little is known about how positive psychology can support the wellbeing of autistic people. The present study investigated character strengths profiles as a potential tool to identify strengths-based interventions that could enhance wellbeing outcomes for autistic adults. To our knowledge, this is first study to use this method as a possible way of improving the wellbeing of autistic adults in the community in the UK. Method Forty-seven self-reported formally diagnosed (83%) and self-identifying (17%) autistic adults completed online self-rated standardised questionnaires about their character strengths and life satisfaction. Descriptive statistics and correlational analyses were used to evaluate the profile of character strengths and their relationship to overall life satisfaction. Results Character strengths most frequently reported by autistic adults were Honesty, Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence, Love of Learning, Fairness, and Kindness. Higher levels of life satisfaction were associated with character strengths of Gratitude, Hope, and Honesty. Conclusions The most frequent character strengths were consistent with autistic traits reported in the wider body of autism literature, such as intense interests and strong attention to detail. The present study provides preliminary findings and recommendations for potential future strengths-based interventions that could enhance life satisfaction of autistic adults in a community setting. Further investigation with larger samples is needed to replicate the emerging findings on this topic.

Titre : Giving thanks: Findings from a gratitude intervention with mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lisa TIMMONS, Auteur ; Naomi V. EKAS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.13-24 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Gratitude Intervention Character strengths Mothers Positive psychology Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Gratitude is a character strength related to greater well-being in the general population; however, it has not been studied extensively in mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Therefore, an online, writing-based gratitude intervention was conducted with mothers of children with ASD. Method Various areas of well-being were assessed immediately prior to and after the intervention and at a one-month follow-up for 64 mothers of children with ASD. The study participants were divided into two intervention groups and a control group. Participants in each group were asked to complete a weekly writing activity for eight weeks and were included in the study if they completed assessments at all three major time points. Results Across all conditions, including the life events control group, mothers improved in well-being, parenting self-efficacy, positive maternal characteristics, and relationship quality. Group differences were found only for parenting satisfaction. Changes in reported child behavior problems were non-significant. Conclusions Findings suggest improvement in several areas of well-being following the gratitude intervention with mothers of children with ASD. However, positive changes were seen in the control group, as well. Therefore, it is possible that some other aspect of the intervention, such as written personal disclosure is driving improvements in well-being. Implications for positive psychology intervention research are discussed.
