Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 26-8 (November 2022) . - p.1931-1946 Titre : Autism presentation in female and Black populations: Examining the roles of identity, theory, and systemic inequalities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Maire Claire DIEMER, Auteur ; Emily D. GERSTEIN, Auteur ; April REGESTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1931-1946 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Child  Humans  United States  Female  Child, Preschool  Autistic Disorder/diagnosis  Autism Spectrum Disorder/epidemiology  Intellectual Disability  Ethnicity  Racial Groups  African American  autism spectrum disorders  diagnosis  diversity  gender  health disparity  intellectual disability  intersectional  race  systemic inequality Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Although the prevalence of autism has been rising in recent years, disparities in diagnosis still remain. Female and Black populations in the United States are diagnosed later, are more likely to have an intellectual disability, and are excluded from research as well as services designed for autistic individuals. Autistic Black girls are effectively invisible in the current scientific literature. Intersectional theory, which looks at a person as a whole, examines models that are inclusive toward diverse gender, ability, and racial/ethnic backgrounds. This theory may be a useful approach to clinical and research work with autism so that practitioners may be most effective for the whole population of autistic people. The authors recommend research focusing on inclusion of autistic populations with intellectual disability and research studies that include evaluations as part of the procedure. Clinically, the authors recommend a focus on screening all young children for autism and improving provider knowledge in working with diverse autistic populations.
