“It feels like holding back something you need to say”: Autistic and Non-Autistic Adults accounts of sensory experiences and stimming / Rebecca A. CHARLTON in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 89 (November 2021)
[article]
Titre : “It feels like holding back something you need to say”: Autistic and Non-Autistic Adults accounts of sensory experiences and stimming Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Rebecca A. CHARLTON, Auteur ; Timothy ENTECOTT, Auteur ; Evelina BELOVA, Auteur ; Gabrielle NWAORDU, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101864 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adulthood autism repetitive behaviours sensory sensitivity stimming qualitative analysis Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Restricted repetitive behaviours and sensory sensitivities are core features of autism and have been explored in childhood. However, few studies have examined adult experiences. Autistic adults have begun reframing repetitive behaviours (which often have negative connotations) as “stimming”, and emphasising the benefits of stimming and need for acceptance. Few studies have examined stimming in non-autistic adults. Method An online survey examined sensory and stimming experiences of 340 adults (160 with an autism diagnosis, 139 suspected autistic, 41 non-autistic). Group differences were examined on categorical responses. A thematic analysis was performed on open-text responses. Results Autistic (diagnosed and suspected) individuals reported greater sensory sensitivity and more stimming than non-autistic adults. Stimming is also performed by some non-autistic adults. Thematic analysis produced three themes. 1) Sensory sensitivity had negative physical, emotional and cognitive effects on individuals. 2) Stimming was a self-regulatory mechanism that allowed for positive and negative emotional expression, and cognitive distraction. 3) Social pressure was a reason for suppressing stimming but this had a negative effect on emotions and cognition. Conclusions This study describes the links between sensory sensitivities and stimming behaviours among autistic and non-autistic adults. Autistic adults describe the positive effects of stimming and the negative effect of social pressure to suppress stims, this challenges the prevailing view (largely from studies in childhood) that stimming is a negative behaviour. The views of autistic adults should be incorporated to assure an understanding of associations between sensory sensitivities and stimming, and to understand how stimming may have beneficial effects.

STEWARD, Auteur ; L. CRANE, Auteur ; D. ELLIOTT, Auteur ; C. ELPHICK, Auteur ; E. PELLICANO, Auteur ; G. RUSSELL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1782-1792 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adults autism neurodiversity repetitive behaviour repetitive movements self-stimulatory behaviour stereotypies stimming Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : 'Stereotyped or repetitive motor movements' are characterised as core features in the diagnosis of autism, yet many autistic adults (and the neurodiversity movement) have reclaimed them as 'stimming'. Supported by a growing body of scientific research, autistic adults argue that these behaviours may serve as useful coping mechanisms, yet little research has examined stimming from the perspective of autistic adults. Through interviews and focus groups, we asked 32 autistic adults to share their perceptions and experiences of stimming, including the reasons they stim, any value doing so may hold for them and their perceptions of others' reactions to stimming. Using thematic analysis, we identified two themes: stimming as (1) a self-regulatory mechanism and (2) lacking in social acceptance, but can become accepted through understanding. Autistic adults highlighted the importance of stimming as an adaptive mechanism that helps them to soothe or communicate intense emotions or thoughts and thus objected to treatment that aims to eliminate the behaviour.
