Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 53-10 (October 2023) . - p.3901-3915 Titre : Comparing narrative writing of autistic and non-autistic College students Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sergey SHEVCHUK-HILL, Auteur ; Shana SZCZUPAKIEWICZ, Auteur ; Bella KOFNER, Auteur ; Kristen GILLESPIE-LYNCH, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3901-3915 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We compared short stories by autistic (n=19) and non-autistic (n=23) university students. We used automated software and content analysis to code students' stories. We found that writings were more similar than different. However, autistic students' stories were rated at a higher reading level (p=.013) than non-autistic students'. Autistic students' stories contained fewer grammatical errors (p = .02) but were less likely to include a climax (p=.026). Autistic students reported more positive writing affect than non-autistic students (p=.026). Higher writing affect was associated with writing highly fictional texts (p=.03) that contained more sentences (p=.005). Findings suggest writing may be a strength for autistic students and opportunities to write creatively may promote positive affect toward writing.
