[article]
Titre : Exploring leisure time use and impact on well-being among transition-age autistic youth Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sara C. FOLTA, Auteur ; Linda G. BANDINI, Auteur ; Aviva MUST, Auteur ; Jessica PELLETIER, Auteur ; Kate RYAN, Auteur ; Carol CURTIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101996 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Leisure time Quality of life Transition-age youth Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Quality of life (QOL) is lower for transition-age autistic youth compared to typically developing counterparts. Leisure-time pursuits have been linked to higher quality of life in the general population and among autistic adults. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore leisure-time use among transition-age autistic youth. Method Youth ages 18?23 years were recruited through universities and organizations that serve the autistic population and their families across the United States. Participants took photos of their leisure-time activities over a 7-day period using their own smartphones. They were then interviewed via Zoom using a semi-structured interview guide that was based on the Self-Determination Theory framework and the Iwasaki leisure-time model. Data were analyzed using directed qualitative content analysis based on the theoretical framework. Results Eighteen young autistic adults participated in the study (nine male, five female, three agender/non-binary, and one transgender). Solitary, screen-based activities were most common. Major themes were that activities contributed positively to a sense of achievement and a sense of autonomy, and there were few major barriers to favored activities. While most activities were done alone, rather than describing these activities as isolating, activities helped participants cope with stress. Participants gained a sense of connection when they were engaged in leisure activities with others who shared common interests. Conclusions Results suggest that appropriate interventions may support youth in choosing activities they most enjoy, even if they appear to be solitary or sedentary, and to help ensure that youth are gaining maximal benefits from these activities.
