Appropriateness, Acceptability, and Feasibility of a Neurodiversity-Based Self-determination Program for Autistic Adults / T.A. Meridian MCDONALD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-8 (August 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 53-8 (August 2023) . - p.2933-2953 Titre : Appropriateness, Acceptability, and Feasibility of a Neurodiversity-Based Self-determination Program for Autistic Adults Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : T.A.

MALOW, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2933-2953 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Published self-determination programs do not adequately address the needs of autistic adults. We designed a multi-component self-determination program, grounded in the neurodiversity paradigm, to help autistic adults achieve goals to improve their quality of life. The first phase involved 5 days of psychoeducation, practice, and social events; the second phase included 3 months of telecoaching; and the third phase included follow-up. Thirty-four university students coached 31 autistic adults on three evolving goals. On average, participants completed one goal per week. Most participants were satisfied with the program. We found that the program was appropriate, acceptable, and feasible. This program is a promising approach to helping autistic adults gain self-determination skills and improve their quality of life.

Correction to: Discriminative and Criterion Validity of the Autism Spectrum Identity Scale (ASIS) / T.A. Meridian MCDONALD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-1 (January 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-1 (January 2020) . - p.340-341 Titre : Correction to: Discriminative and Criterion Validity of the Autism Spectrum Identity Scale (ASIS) Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : T.A. Meridian MCDONALD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.340-341 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The original version of this article contains an error in Results and Discussion sections and in Table 2. The corrected text and table are given below. Results: Participants' scores were higher for overall stigma and discrimination than those reported by King et al (2007). The pattern of descriptive statistics for the AAQOL was simialr to that reported by Brod et al. (2006). Discussion: Of note, participants in this study scored approximately 30 points lower than the non-ADHD scores on the AAQOL as reported by Brod and colleagues (2006). The distribution of scores in the current study more closely resembled the distribution of scores by those with ADHD than the non-ADHD control group. This is consistent with the widespread reports of decreased quality of life for adults on the autism spectrum (e.g., Howlin and Moss 2012; Taylor & Seltzer 2011). Further, and consistent with reports of increased stigma (e.g., Shtayermnan, 2009; Tyman, Salor, Saia, et al. 2010), participants in this study scored approximately 20 points higher for overall stigma, and ten points higher for discrimination, than participants with mental illness as reported by King and colleagues (2007).

Previous research on the 22-item Autism Spectrum Identity Scale (ASIS) reported a four-factor structure with strong split-sample cross-validation and good internal consistency. This study reports the discriminative and criterion validity of the ASIS with other measures. Adults (n = 1139) who have, or identify with, an autism spectrum diagnosis took a nationally distributed online survey that also included demographic questions and measures for stigma, self-esteem, and quality of life (QoL). All four ASIS factors discriminated from measures of stigma and self-esteem. The ASIS also showed good criterion validity with the factors of Positive Difference and Changeability demonstrating widespread relationships with subjective quality of life in the expected directions.

Mind the NIH-Funding Gap: Structural Discrimination in Physical Health-Related Research for Cognitively Able Autistic Adults / T.A. Meridian MCDONALD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-4 (April 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 54-4 (April 2024) . - p.1411-1424 Titre : Mind the NIH-Funding Gap: Structural Discrimination in Physical Health-Related Research for Cognitively Able Autistic Adults Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : T.A. Meridian MCDONALD, Auteur ; Audrey SCUDDER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1411-1424 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autistic adults experience disparities in physical health and health care access. A major barrier to addressing these disparities is a lack of federal funding for research on this topic. In seeking funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), we discovered nodes that contribute to structural discrimination in physical health-related research for autistic adults. To examine this structural discrimination, we systematically searched funded research on all physical health-disparity conditions in autistic adults using NIH RePORTER. Among 61 unique studies, none focused on improving the relevant physical health condition through intervention, programs, or services for autistic adults. Thus, we need updated policies and procedures that support research on physical health disparities in populations with developmental or mental health conditions.

Parents as a Team: Mother, Father, a Child with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and a Spinning Toy / Douglas W. MAYNARD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-2 (February 2016)

Meridian MCDONALD, Auteur ; Trini STICKLE, Auteur Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p.406-423 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Analyse de la conversation  Autism  Parent–child interactions  Conditional and accommodating interactions  Conversation analysis  Social interaction Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This paper is a single case study involving a visit to a diagnostic clinic for autism spectrum disorder. A young boy finds a toy that he can hold with one hand and spin with another. In order to retrieve the toy and leave it in the clinic, the parents engage in a team effort. We describe this achievement in terms of two styles of practice or interactional routines with differing participation frameworks. We examine not only how the parents work as a team using these styles, but also how they improvise to extract the spinning toy from their son’s grasp with minimal protest on his part.
