Brief Report: The Benefits of an Employer-Based Work-Experience Program for Participants with ASD / R. PEIJEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-2 (February 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 52-2 (February 2022) . - p.890-896 Titre : Brief Report: The Benefits of an Employer-Based Work-Experience Program for Participants with ASD Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : R.

This study observes the impact of participation for people with ASD in establishing employment (with or without a competitive salary). A quasi-experimental design constructed a control group that can be considered similar to the group of participants in the employer-based program, except for supported-employment entitlement. Results indicate a 29% increase in post-five-year employment for participants than the control group, but no effect was found on employment with a competitive salary, only for the post-second year. Inclusivity enhances the careers of people with ASD, but their potential to establish employment with a competitive salary remains limited.

Research needs and priorities for transition and employment in autism: Considerations reflected in a “Special Interest Group” at the International Meeting for Autism Research / David B NICHOLAS in Autism Research, 10-1 (January 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 10-1 (January 2017) . - p.15-24 Titre : Research needs and priorities for transition and employment in autism: Considerations reflected in a “Special Interest Group” at the International Meeting for Autism Research Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : David B NICHOLAS, Auteur ; Sandra HODGETTS, Auteur ; Lonnie ZWAIGENBAUM, Auteur ; Leann E.

As an example, system and service development to support successful transition to adulthood and meaningful vocation for adults has received relatively little research scrutiny until recently, with practitioners and program developers lacking evidenceinformed approaches guiding service delivery. A Special Interest Group (SIG) was convened at the International Meeting for Autism Research in May 2014 and May 2015, with a focus on transitional and vocational issues in ASD. The SIG consisted of 120 international delegates, including self-advocates, family members, researchers, program and policy developers, practitioners, and interdisciplinary ASD trainees. Following a summary of the literature, subgroups of attendees were convened in smaller groups to identify research needs and priorities. International researchers facilitated these discussions with notes taken in each subgroup. Using a qualitative analytic approach, key themes across groups were identified. These key themes, outlined in this paper, address the identified need to (a) advance research capacity; (b) build employer capacity relative to employing persons with ASD; and (c) enhance support resources for adults with ASD and their families. Heightened research activity guiding practice and policy, community/employer engagement, and person and family-centered services were recommended. Implications for advancement and implementation are offered.

Sex differences in employment and supports for adults with autism spectrum disorder / Julie LOUNDS TAYLOR in Autism, 23-7 (October 2019)

LIPKIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1711-1719 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adults  autism spectrum disorders  benefits  sex differences  vocational/labor force participation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study explored sex differences in employment, reasons for unemployment, benefits, and supports among a large, international sample of adults with autism spectrum disorder. The sample included 443 adults with autism spectrum disorder (60% female; 74% residing in the United States) who consented to be part of an autism research registry and completed an Internet survey. Outcome variables included current employment status, number of hours working, number of jobs in the past 5 years, reasons for unemployment, as well as the number of benefits received and the amount of financial support currently being received from families of origin. Using multiple regression models, we found that males and females were working at similar rates. Females were more likely than males to say that their unemployment was a result of choosing to withdraw from the labor market. Similar percentages of males and females reported receiving some form of benefits or family support, but of those receiving benefits/family support, males received more than females. These results are consistent with other studies finding subtle, but potentially important sex differences in life-course outcomes of individuals with autism spectrum disorder.

Coming out autistic at work: A review of the literature / Tia R. SCHULTZ ; Suzanne KUCHARCZYK ; Nancy WELSH-YOUNG in Autism, 28-7 (July 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 28-7 (July 2024) . - p.1772-1784 Titre : Coming out autistic at work: A review of the literature Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Tia R. SCHULTZ, Auteur ; Suzanne KUCHARCZYK, Auteur ; Nancy WELSH-YOUNG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1772-1784 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  diagnosis  quality of life  vocational/labor force participation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Research consistently documents the negative postsecondary outcomes of autistic individuals. Identifying facilitators and barriers to obtaining and maintaining employment is imperative to improve postsecondary outcomes. Autism diagnosis disclosure at work may serve as a facilitator or barrier to obtaining and maintaining employment, but little is known about the lived experiences of individuals on the spectrum regarding diagnosis disclosure at work. To ascertain why autistic individuals choose to pursue disclosure or choose not to disclose at work, how they disclose, and the consequences of that disclosure, a state-of-the-art literature review was conducted. Ten studies met the final inclusion criteria and were synthesized to provide guidance to autistic individuals, families, and professionals who support autistic individuals' transition to employment. Lay abstract Research consistently documents the poor postsecondary outcomes of autistic individuals. It is important to identify supports that help autistic individuals get and keep jobs to improve postsecondary outcomes. Autism diagnosis disclosure at work may serve as a support (e.g., receiving accommodations) or as a barrier (e.g., discrimination) to getting and keeping employment, but little is known about the lived experiences of autistic individuals on diagnosis disclosure at work. To better understand why individuals on the spectrum choose to pursue disclosure or choose not to disclose at work, how they disclose, and the consequences of that disclosure, a state-of-the-art literature review was conducted. Ten studies met the final inclusion criteria and were synthesized to provide guidance to autistic individuals, families, and professionals who support their transition to employment. Findings from the review indicate that diagnosis disclosure is a highly complex decision. Across reviewed studies, participants chose to pursue disclosure for specific reasons, including access to accommodations or support, increase understanding, and advocate for self or others. Autistic individuals participating across reviewed studies shared they chose not to disclose primarily due to fears of discrimination and experience of stigma. Both the hopes (access to accommodations and supports) and fears (bullying and discrimination) were validated in the experienced consequences of disclosure. More research is needed on the contextual experiences of how individuals on the spectrum disclose their diagnosis at work.

Generosity of state insurance mandates and growth in the workforce for autism spectrum disorder / Ryan K. MCBAIN in Autism, 25-4 (May 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 25-4 (May 2021) . - p.921-931 Titre : Generosity of state insurance mandates and growth in the workforce for autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ryan K. MCBAIN, Auteur ; Jonathan H. CANTOR, Auteur ; Aaron KOFNER, Auteur ; Timothy CALLAGHAN, Auteur ; Bradley D. STEIN, Auteur ; Hao. YU, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.921-931 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  health services  policy  vocational/labor force participation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To improve access to health services for children with autism spectrum disorder, US states have passed laws requiring health insurers to cover autism-related care, commonly known as state insurance mandates. However, the features of mandates differ across states, with some state laws containing very generous provisions and others containing very restrictive provisions such as whether the mandates include children aged above 12?years, whether there is a limit on spending, and whether there are restrictions on the types of services covered. This study examined the relationship between generosity of mandates and growth in the health workforce between 2003 and 2017, a period during which 44 states passed mandates. We found that states that enacted more generous mandates experienced significantly more growth in board-certified behavioral analysts who provide behavioral therapy as well as more growth in child psychiatrists. We did not find differences in the growth of pediatricians, which is a less specialized segment of the workforce. Our findings were consistent across eight different mandate features and suggest that the content of legislation may be as important as whether or not legislation has been passed in terms of encouraging growth in the supply of services for children with autism spectrum disorder.
