The autism worldview dilemma: to normalise or not to normalise, that is the question / Nick CHOWN in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 24-2 (October 2023)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 24-2 (October 2023) . - p.5-12 Titre : The autism worldview dilemma: to normalise or not to normalise, that is the question Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Nick CHOWN, Auteur ; Shona MURPHY, Auteur ; Elsa SUCKLE, Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : p.5-12 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : All three authors are members of the Independent Autism Research Group. Nick Chown has undertaken extensive autism research. Shona Murphy is a graduate teaching assistant at Edge Hill University and is researching autistic parental experiences of being accused of fabricated or induced illness. Elsa Suckle is a lecturer in SpLD/Dyslexia and Inclusion at Bath Spa University and has extensive experience supporting neurodivergent students in Higher and Further Education. This paper should be read by all who live and work with autistic children and adults. It serves to question the perspective we take and the potential outcomes. Three perspectives or paradigms are described – the medical model, radical behaviourism and the neurodivergent-affirmative model. Each derives from a different view of autism and so differ in their methods, with little common ground, termed by the authors as the 'autism worldview dilemma.' The authors argue that the most respectful and positive paradigm in terms of process and outcome is the neurodivergent perspective. This is gathering momentum as autistic communities and other neurodivergent groups take to social media and have greater visibility in research and the workplace. There is also now more effective and frequent consultation with autistic people on decisions which affect them. The Editor welcomes papers from those who have changed their perspective over the years giving their rationale and commentary for the journey they have taken.

The pros and cons of being an autistic parent / Shona MURPHY in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 22-1 (May 2021)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 22-1 (May 2021) . - p.87-96 Titre : The pros and cons of being an autistic parent Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Shona MURPHY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.87-96 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many parents of autistic children are autistic themselves and yet there has been relatively little research on what this experience is like for the parents. In this paper, Shona Murphy who is autistic and has two autistic children, interviewed five autistic mothers and one autistic father to explore their experiences. The literature on this topic often shows that parents with a disability are unfairly judged and stigmatised and not given the support they seek. Other literature suggests that having similar issues to your child can mean that parents are more empathic and able to understand and meet their child's needs more effectively than other parents. Although the sample is small and the parents might have opted in because they were dissatisfied with services, their accounts suggest, and Shona concludes, that there is a need to help professionals appreciate that parenting might look different when one or both parents is autistic, in order to avoid making negative judgements which might lead to further distress rather than being helpful.
