A website developed by Sesame Street containing information about autism and resources for families was distributed to parents of children with autism (n = 473) and parents of children without autism (n = 707). Pre- and post-test measures of implicit bias toward children with autism; explicit attitudes and knowledge about autism; and parenting confidence, strain, and stigma were completed before and after the website was presented. Results indicated that parents of children with autism showed less implicit bias compared with those of non-autistic children during the pre-test, but the groups did not differ at the post-test. Parents without autistic children and those with more negative explicit attitudes showed a greater reduction in implicit bias from the pre- to the post-test. In addition, for parents of children with autism, a more positive change in explicit attitudes and increased knowledge from the pre- to the post-test was associated with more empowerment at the post-test. Together, our findings suggest that the online educational resources can reduce implicit bias against children with autism and help mitigate some of the psychological issues associated with parenting children with autism.

Increasing autism acceptance: The impact of the Sesame Street "See Amazing in All Children" initiative / Bruno J. ANTHONY in Autism, 24-1 (January 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 24-1 (January 2020) . - p.95-108 Titre : Increasing autism acceptance: The impact of the Sesame Street "See Amazing in All Children" initiative Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Bruno J. ANTHONY, Auteur ; Hillary A. ROBERTSON, Auteur ; Alyssa VERBALIS, Auteur ; Yetta MYRICK, Auteur ; Mary TROXEL, Auteur ; Sydney SEESE, Auteur ; Laura G. ANTHONY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.95-108 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : acceptance  autism spectrum disorders  community inclusion  preschool Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To promote knowledge and acceptance of autism, Sesame Workshop created an online initiative: See Amazing in All Children. This nationwide evaluation of See Amazing assessed whether it increased knowledge and acceptance, promoted community inclusion, reduced parenting strain, and enhanced parenting competence. Survey responses were collected online from parents of children (age 6) with and without autism before (N = 1010), 1 week after (N = 510), and, for parents of autistic children, 1 month after (N = 182) they viewed the See Amazing materials. Following exposure, parents of non-autistic children showed small but significant increases in knowledge of autism and, like parents of autistic children, greater acceptance of autistic children. Parents of autistic children reported less strain, increased parenting competence, and more hope about involving their child in their community. That the See Amazing materials invoked positive changes in the general parent community and in parents of autistic children suggests that See Amazing materials have the potential to be an effective resource to increase acceptance and community inclusion, although limitations of self-selection, dropout rate, and lack of control group constrain interpretation. Implications include support for targeting acceptance as a step beyond awareness campaigns, though actual behavior change is a subject for future research.
