An On-Line Survey of University Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Australia and New Zealand: Characteristics, Support Satisfaction, and Advocacy / Anastasia H. ANDERSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-2 (February 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-2 (February 2020) . - p.440-454 Titre : An On-Line Survey of University Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Australia and New Zealand: Characteristics, Support Satisfaction, and Advocacy Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Anastasia H.

A broad range of disciplines were studied, and the participants' reported strengths included a passion for learning, strong technology skills, and creative thoughts. The participants' greatest concerns were academic requirements and mental health, including high rates of self-harm and suicidal ideation. Despite support satisfaction ratings being high, support usage was low, possibly indicating a mismatch of supports and needs, lack of awareness of available supports, and/or poor advocacy skills.

Do labels matter? The effect of specific and generic labels on university students’ openness towards autistic peers / Yong-Hwee NAH in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 97 (September 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 97 (September 2022) . - 102020 Titre : Do labels matter? The effect of specific and generic labels on university students’ openness towards autistic peers Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yong-Hwee NAH, Auteur ; Yi-Fang NEO, Auteur ; Annabel Shen-Hsing CHEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : 102020 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Special needs  Label  University students  Openness  Disclosure Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background The number of autistic students enroling into universities and completing a higher education qualification is increasing. They would have to decide whether to disclose their diagnosis in order to receive appropriate and adequate support or not to share their diagnosis due to possible stigmatisation faced by them. This study examined the effect of labels ( ˜Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)’ or ˜Special Needs’ [SN]) used on university students’ openness towards autistic peers. Method 121 university students (43 males, 78 females; age range = 18 “26) were randomly assigned to read one of three conditions with student characters identified as (1) having ASD or (2) SN; or (3) not identified with any label. They rated their openness towards the featured student and completed an ASD knowledge survey. Result Participants reported a greater level of openness toward vignettes characters with the ASD label and SN label as compared to vignettes characters with no label (with a large effect size). However, openness towards ASD and SN labels were not different. Knowledge of ASD accounted for a small but significant variance (3.3 %) of how university students rated the behaviours in the vignettes. Conclusion We proposed that the present findings may serve as an encouragement to autistic individuals in local universities to consider disclosing their ASD diagnosis to the people around them and at the same time, underscore the importance of greater public education on ASD, to create a more supportive environment for autistic individuals to thrive in.

Perspectives of Former Students with ASD from Australia and New Zealand on Their University Experience / Anastasia H. ANDERSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-8 (August 2020)

A range of key issues were identified including difficulties encountered when studying, reasons for completion and non-completion, supports used, and coping strategies used by the participants. Many switched to part-time to manage their poor mental health and/or executive function and most had slow rates of progress. Also, some felt they had made poor discipline choices. The participants offered suggestions for future students and for making universities more autism friendly, and the possible need for transition and more structured study supports was identified.

Modeling the impact of social problem-solving deficits on depressive vulnerability in the broader autism phenotype / Scott L. J. JACKSON in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 21 (January 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 21 (January 2016) . - p.128-138 Titre : Modeling the impact of social problem-solving deficits on depressive vulnerability in the broader autism phenotype Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Scott L. J. JACKSON, Auteur ; Barbara DRITSCHEL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.128-138 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ)  Autism phenotype expression  Social problem solving  Depression  University students  Path model analysis Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The social communication and interaction deficits associated with the autism phenotype can have serious emotional consequences for individuals on the autism spectrum. This can be particularly true during young-adulthood, a period of increased social demands and expectations. The current study investigated the specific role of social problem-solving deficits as a mediator in the relationship between autism phenotype severity and depressive symptomology in young-adults. A sample of 230 university students (48% male) ranging in age from 18 to 30 (M = 21.30, SD = 2.48) were assessed on autism phenotype expression (Autism-Spectrum Quotient), social problem-solving ability (Social Problem-Solving Inventory, Revised) and depressive symptomology (Beck’s Depression Inventory). Results indicated that deficient social problem-solving skills account for a significant portion of the depressive symptomology associated with increased autism phenotype expression. Path model analysis output suggested that increased expression of the social components of the autism phenotype are associated with both ineffective social problem-solving styles and attitudes, while increased detail orientation discourages the use of an impulsive problem-solving style. The findings of this investigation provide preliminary evidence suggesting that programs designed to improve social problem-solving skills could be beneficial in the reduction of depressive vulnerability for young-adults on the autism spectrum.

The Effects of Contact and Labeling on Attitudes Towards Individuals with Autism / C. L. DICKTER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-11 (November 2021)

Study 1 examined whether typically developing university students' (n?=?70) judgments of their peers would differ as a function of interpersonal contact and being labeled as autistic. Perceptions of peers with autism were consistent with stereotypes about autism and were associated with contact. In Study 2, typically developing university students (n?=?130) imagined interacting with a student with manipulations of perseverative behavior and the label of autism. Attitudes towards individuals with autism were more positive following an imagined contact scenario with a peer demonstrating perseverative behavior with a label of autism.
