ABSTRACT Autistic youth have been shown to be at risk for negative peer experiences, but experiences of being ignored are rarely examined in this group. This study is an early-stage examination of the experience of being ignored in autistic youth. Objectives are to test psychometric properties of a measure of being ignored; describe rates of being ignored; identify who is most at risk for being ignored; and test the association of being ignored with other social experiences and psychological health. One hundred and forty-nine autistic high school students with full scale IQs of 70 or above (M?=?99.86, SD?=?16.5) and aged 15?23?years completed self-reported, online surveys regarding day-to-day experiences, well-being, and psychological health. Parents completed additional measures assessing ASD symptomology and other demographic and clinical characteristics. A confirmatory factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha indicated good psychometric properties for the Ignore factor. While the average score on the Ignore scale was relatively low, ~40% reported often having at least one type of experience of being ignored. Being ignored was associated with having more SRS-2 Restricted Interests/Repetitive Behaviors and Social Communication and Interaction Problems. Peer victimization was associated with higher rates on the ignore scale and social inclusion scale was associated with lower rates of being ignored. Multiple regressions controlling for peer victimization and inclusion found being ignored to be associated with higher rates of depression and anxiety. The findings suggest that being ignored may be an especially impactful experience for autistic youth. |
