Titre : ‘Are they just gonna reject me?’ Male adolescents with autism making sense of anxiety: An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Louise ACKER, Auteur ; Matthew KNIGHT, Auteur ; Fiona KNOTT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.9-20 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis Autism Experience Qualitative Anxiety Emotion Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Anxiety can be a significant difficulty for people with autism, and rates increase during childhood and early adolescence. Nevertheless, little is known about the subjective experience of anxiety in this population. This study aimed to explore this phenomenon using a method conducive to gaining richer insight into participants' lived experiences. Method This study used Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis to explore the lived experience of anxiety, in 14 male adolescents (aged 13–18 years) with autism. Results Participants described anxiety which in some ways resembled typically developing adolescent concerns, such as a desire to belong and feel connected to others, and stress linked to academic pressure. However, they also described how their anxiety could be further compounded by qualities that are characteristic of autism, such as difficulty knowing what others felt and how to comfort them, difficulty regulating emotions and the challenge of sensory sensitivities. Some managed their anxiety in ways that might differ from the typically developing population, for example through use of fantasy and role-play. Participants also outlined details about the format and nature of support that they found most helpful. Conclusions Themes highlight participants' sensitivity and vulnerability in their unique struggle during this time of adolescence, as well as their resilience and resourcefulness in navigating this. A compassionate response is required from health and education professionals, which considers these young people's human need to feel socially connected, which is sensitive to the way that support is provided, and perhaps makes greater use of creative means of intervention (such as involving fantasy and role-play).

Titre : Developing a diagnostic and support service for students with Asperger syndrome at university Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Angela TAYLOR, Auteur ; Fiona KNOTT, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.9-15 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This is one of two papers within this issue that focuses on the needs of students with ASD at University. An increasing number of schools have developed ways of identifying and addressing the needs of this group but fewer places of further and higher education have developed this expertise. This paper describes how the University of reading has responded to the particular needs of this population prompted by the admission of a student with Asperger syndrome. It is an important paper that adds to the relatively limited literature on strategies to support student beyond age of 18.

Titre : Parent and child perspectives on the nature of anxiety in children and young people with autism spectrum disorders: a focus group study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ann OZSIVADJIAN, Auteur ; Fiona KNOTT, Auteur ; Iliana MAGIATI, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.107-121 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Anxiety disorders are common among children and young people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Despite growing knowledge about the prevalence, phenomenology and treatment of anxiety disorders, relatively little is understood about the nature and impact of anxiety in this group and little is known about autism-specific factors that may have a role in the increased prevalence of anxiety disorders. In this exploratory study, we report on a series of five focus groups with 17 parents of children and adolescents with ASD and anxiety. Across groups, parents gave strikingly similar descriptions of the triggers and behavioural signs associated with anxiety. Another consistent finding was that many parents reported that their children had great difficulty expressing their worries verbally and most showed their anxiety through changes in their behaviour. The impact of anxiety was reported to often be more substantial than the impact of ASD itself. The implications of the focus group findings are discussed in relation to existing literature.

[article]
Titre : Sibgroups: Supporting siblings of children on the autism spectrum Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Fiona KNOTT, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.18-26 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Dr Fiona Knott is a Clinical Psychologist working for Berkshire Healthcare Foundation NHS Trust and a Lecturer at the University of Reading. She has a long interest in the field of autism and a particular interest in siblings. In this paper, she describes four Sibgroups set up in Berkshire and Scotland. These were weekly groups for brothers and sisters of children on the autism spectrum. Fiona provides details of the content of the sessions and the instruments used to measure the participants’ views on autism and their relationship with their brother or sister. This is a very useful paper for anyone involved in supporting families and children to provide ideas on how to elicit their views and the areas in which they may require knowledge and support.
