Committed to work but vulnerable: self-perceptions and mental health in NEET 18-year olds from a contemporary British cohort / Sidra GOLDMAN-MELLOR in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 57-2 (February 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 57-2 (February 2016) . - p.196-203 Titre : Committed to work but vulnerable: self-perceptions and mental health in NEET 18-year olds from a contemporary British cohort Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sidra GOLDMAN-MELLOR, Auteur ; Avshalom CASPI, Auteur ; Louise ARSENEAULT, Auteur ; Nifemi AJALA, Auteur ; Antony AMBLER, Auteur ; Andrea DANESE, Auteur ; Helen FISHER, Auteur ; Abigail HUCKER, Auteur ; Candice ODGERS, Auteur ; Teresa WILLIAMS, Auteur ; Chloe WONG, Auteur ; Terrie E.

We compared four types of work-related self-perceptions, as well as vulnerability to mental health and substance abuse problems, among youths not in education, employment or training (NEET) and among their peers. Methods Participants were from the Environmental Risk (E-Risk) longitudinal study, a nationally representative UK cohort of 2,232 twins born in 1994–1995. We measured commitment to work, job-search effort, professional/technical skills, ‘soft’ skills (e.g. teamwork, decision-making, communication), optimism about getting ahead, and mental health and substance use disorders at age 18. We also examined childhood mental health. Results At age 18, 11.6% of participants were NEET. NEET participants reported themselves as committed to work and searching for jobs with greater diligence than their non-NEET peers. However, they reported fewer ‘soft’ skills (B = ?0.98, p < .001) and felt less optimistic about their likelihood of getting ahead in life (B = ?2.41, p < .001). NEET youths also had higher rates of concurrent mental health and substance abuse problems, but these did not explain the relationship with work-related self-perceptions. Nearly 60% of NEET (vs. 35% of non-NEET) youths had already experienced ?1 mental health problem in childhood/adolescence. Associations of NEET status with concurrent mental health problems were independent of pre-existing mental health vulnerability. Conclusions Our findings indicate that while NEET is clearly an economic and mental health issue, it does not appear to be a motivation issue. Alongside skills, work-related self-perceptions and mental health problems may be targets for intervention and service provision among this high-risk population.

Self-perception of competencies in adolescents with autism spectrum disorders / Rosaria FURLANO in Autism Research, 8-6 (December 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 8-6 (December 2015) . - p.761-770 Titre : Self-perception of competencies in adolescents with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Rosaria FURLANO, Auteur ; Elizabeth A. KELLEY, Auteur ; Layla HALL, Auteur ; Daryl E. WILSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.761-770 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  self-perceptions  cognitive development  academic functioning  metacognition  self-concept Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Research has demonstrated that, despite difficulties in multiple domains, children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) show a lack of awareness of these difficulties. A misunderstanding of poor competencies may make it difficult for individuals to adjust their behaviour in accordance with feedback and may lead to greater impairments over time. This study examined self-perceptions of adolescents with ASD (n?=?19) and typically developing (TD) mental-age-matched controls (n?=?22) using actual performance on objective academic tasks as the basis for ratings. Before completing the tasks, participants were asked how well they thought they would do (pre-task prediction). After completing each task, they were asked how well they thought they did (immediate post-performance) and how well they would do in the future (hypothetical future post-performance). Adolescents with ASD had more positively biased self-perceptions of competence than TD controls. The ASD group tended to overestimate their performance on all ratings of self-perceptions (pre-task prediction, immediate, and hypothetical future post-performance). In contrast, while the TD group was quite accurate at estimating their performance immediately before and after performing the task, they showed some tendency to overestimate their future performance. Future investigation is needed to systematically examine possible mechanisms that may be contributing to these biased self-perceptions.

"I don't feel different. But then again, I wouldn't know what it feels like to be normal": Perspectives of Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Lauren D. BERKOVITS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-3 (March 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-3 (March 2020) . - p.831-843 Titre : "I don't feel different.

BERKOVITS, Auteur ; Christine T. MOODY, Auteur ; Jan BLACHER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.831-843 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ASD diagnosis  Adolescence  Self-perceptions  Well-being Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is minimal research regarding the personal experiences and perceptions of youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Yet, the positive and negative perceptions that youth internalize about their diagnoses are crucial, as they may have a strong impact on individuals' self-concept and well-being. This paper utilizes mixed methods to describe the perceptions of 38 adolescents with ASD about their diagnoses, as elicited via semi-structured interviews. Quantitative analyses explore links between youths' perceptions and other aspects of their social-emotional well-being. Implications are highlighted regarding the importance of shifting the narrative that individuals with ASD develop about themselves and their diagnoses.
