A broad range of disciplines were studied, and the participants' reported strengths included a passion for learning, strong technology skills, and creative thoughts. The participants' greatest concerns were academic requirements and mental health, including high rates of self-harm and suicidal ideation. Despite support satisfaction ratings being high, support usage was low, possibly indicating a mismatch of supports and needs, lack of awareness of available supports, and/or poor advocacy skills.

Perspectives of Former Students with ASD from Australia and New Zealand on Their University Experience / Anastasia H. ANDERSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-8 (August 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-8 (August 2020) . - p.2886-2901 Titre : Perspectives of Former Students with ASD from Australia and New Zealand on Their University Experience Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Anastasia H.

A range of key issues were identified including difficulties encountered when studying, reasons for completion and non-completion, supports used, and coping strategies used by the participants. Many switched to part-time to manage their poor mental health and/or executive function and most had slow rates of progress. Also, some felt they had made poor discipline choices. The participants offered suggestions for future students and for making universities more autism friendly, and the possible need for transition and more structured study supports was identified.

Perspectives of University Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Anastasia H. ANDERSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-3 (March 2018)

Findings from an on-line survey of students with ASD attending university in Australian are reported in this study. Respondents indicated high rates of academic and non-academic difficulties but low usage of supports. Ratings for supports were idiosyncratic, and some students indicated discomfort from using supports or disclosing their disability. Those students who delayed their disclosure accessed fewer supports and reported a poorer overall university experience. Recommendations were made including the need for better transition support and alternative strengths based approaches that use more flexible and individualised curriculum designs.

A Systematic Literature Review of Empirical Research on Postsecondary Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Anastasia H. ANDERSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 49-4 (April 2019)

A diverse range of interventions were examined, many of which appeared feasible and high rates of participant satisfaction were also reported. Differing responses within and among interventions may point to the possible need for individualized supports. Few studies analyzed a specific academic support despite many students with ASD indicating they prefer these supports and that they find them useful. This may highlight the need for participant preferences to be given more consideration when designing supports. Most studies were of poor quality, however, so any conclusions are tentative. Directions for future research were discussed.

A systematic literature review of the experiences and supports of students with autism spectrum disorder in post-secondary education / Anastasia H. ANDERSON in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 39 (July 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 39 (July 2017) . - p.33-53 Titre : A systematic literature review of the experiences and supports of students with autism spectrum disorder in post-secondary education Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Anastasia H. ANDERSON, Auteur ; Jennifer STEPHENSON, Auteur ; Mark CARTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.33-53 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  ASD  Higher education  Post-secondary education  Experiences  Educational supports Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : AbstractBackground Post-secondary students with ASD experience a range of academic and non-academic difficulties and represent approximately one percent of the post-secondary cohort. The purpose of this review is to conduct a systematic literature review of articles that examined the barriers, challenges, and benefits experienced by post-secondary students with ASD, and the supports and services provided to them, and also to analyze student satisfaction with those supports. Method Three databases were searched and articles were screened against eligibility criteria. The twenty-three studies (reported in twenty-nine articles) that met criteria were also assessed for quality. Data pertaining to the benefits, challenges, and barriers experienced, and student satisfaction with supports and services provided, were extracted and analyzed. Results The studies highlighted the diverse range of social, emotional and sensory difficulties experienced by students with ASD, and how those difficulties negatively impacted all aspects of their post-secondary education. Also, the supports provided were often incongruous with need and produced idiosyncratic benefits, demonstrating the need for individualized supports and novel solutions to be identified. Suggestions for future research were made. Conclusions While prior research on post-secondary students with ASD is limited and geographically circumscribed, the current body of research suggests that students with ASD are often more concerned with non-academic issues than with their academic studies. Also, many post-secondary educational institutions were found proficient at providing traditional academic supports while non-academic supports and resources were often found inadequate. In addition, many students with ASD experienced anxiety or had poor advocacy skills and this impeded their ability to access available supports. Finally, students with ASD were found to be very diverse and to experience idiosyncratic responses to supports, suggesting that supports ideally needed to be individualized, ubiquitous, and continually monitored.
