Associations between social camouflaging and internalizing symptoms in autistic and non-autistic adolescents / Courtney J. BERNARDIN in Autism, 26-6 (August 2022)

It is important to understand why this might be. Research has shown that camouflaging, or strategies used to hide autistic traits, might contribute to mental health difficulties in autistic adults. We examined whether this was also the case for autistic adolescents. This study included 140 adolescents ages 13-18years (62 non-autistic, 58 female). All participants answered questions about camouflaging, autistic traits, and mental health difficulties. We found that autistic and non-autistic adolescents who reported higher levels of camouflaging also reported higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. We also found that camouflaging might be particularly stressful for females. These findings improve our understanding of camouflaging during adolescence and point to potential ways to support autistic adolescents, such as help with social skills, self-acceptance, and self-esteem. The findings also support the importance of increasing autism acceptance in the general population.

Social Camouflaging in Autistic and Neurotypical Adolescents: A Pilot Study of Differences by Sex and Diagnosis / Courtney JORGENSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-12 (December 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-12 (December 2020) . - p.4344-4355 Titre : Social Camouflaging in Autistic and Neurotypical Adolescents: A Pilot Study of Differences by Sex and Diagnosis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Courtney JORGENSON, Auteur ; Timothy LEWIS, Auteur ; Chad ROSE, Auteur ; Stephen M. KANNE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.4344-4355 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asd  Autism  Camouflaging  Compensation  Sex differences Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Camouflaging is a process through which individuals mask autistic traits. Studies suggest autistic females may camouflage more than autistic males. However, research has focused on adults and includes few comparisons between autistic and neurotypical individuals. This study compared levels of camouflaging by sex and diagnosis in autistic and neurotypical adolescents. Females reported higher overall levels of camouflaging when not accounting for age. When accounting for age, an age by diagnosis interaction effect emerged. This possible effect of age on camouflaging has implications for understanding how camouflaging behaviors develop and warrants further exploration. Differences also emerged on behaviors labeled as masking and assimilation, subcomponents of camouflaging, with females appearing more similar to their neurotypical peers on behaviors related to social awareness.
