Looking good but feeling bad: "Camouflaging" behaviors and mental health in women with autistic traits / Jonathan S. BECK in Autism, 24-4 (May 2020)
[article]
Titre : Looking good but feeling bad: "Camouflaging" behaviors and mental health in women with autistic traits Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jonathan S. BECK, Auteur ; Rebecca A. LUNDWALL, Auteur ; Terisa GABRIELSEN, Auteur ; Jonathan C. COX, Auteur ; Mikle SOUTH, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.809-821 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum camouflage diagnosis disorders female mental health women Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Women who try to hide or "camouflage" their autistic traits are likely to report that they feel distressed, think of suicide, and/or struggle to function in everyday life. We asked 58 women with autistic traits to complete questionnaires about camouflaging and mental health. Most of these women did not have a formal diagnosis of autism, yet a majority reported that they camouflaged autistic traits, and a large majority reported significant mental health challenges. Some researchers have suggested that women with autistic traits are more likely than autistic men to experience mental health challenges because women may try more to "fit in" socially by camouflaging their autistic traits. Analyses showed that camouflaging was associated with feeling distressed (depressed, anxious, and/or stressed). For women who reported above-average levels of camouflaging, camouflaging was also associated with having thoughts about suicide and struggling to function in everyday life. Trying to camouflage autistic traits was associated with mental health challenges, regardless of whether those traits were very mild or more severe. The findings of this study may influence how mental health professionals evaluate and treat women with autistic traits.
