So excited for the guide to be launched today 🥳 amazing work organising the event Cathy 👏
So excited for the guide to be launched today 🥳 amazing work organising the event Cathy 👏
Education, employment, policy need to acknowledge this upfront: autistics have higher barriers to success in part due to the way they are treated by others. Have strong potential but need support to match the extra barriers.
Findings among the first to be demonstrated in this experimental scenario where people aren't actually judged, only measuring expectations of being judged. Not surprising that this experience is more negative for autistics. Closing the gap requires better effort for typicals.
Highlights the Double Empathy Problem in which mis-alignment of expectations between people with different experiences of the world creates difficulty empathizing with each other. Efforts to build bridges of understanding can improve wellbeing for autistic people. It takes all.
"Across the whole sample, higher social anxiety predicted greater tendency to anticipate rejection from others, not autistic traits." Early rejection may build negative self-bias which in turn influences expectations.
Congrats to @e_mine_gurbuz for publication of new paper on experimental experience of social rejection in autism. Autistic adults don't expect to be liked. Probably due to negative experience. rdcu.be/dFfZ0 @MimHanley @debbieriby @DurhamPsych @EmoryAutism
Really looking forward to this tomorrow and for our e-guide to be out in the world 🥳

One of the best books I read this year. It is a must-read for anyone who studies Psychology, Human Biology, Neuroscience, Psychiatry, etc. We can not change history, but we can learn not to make the same mistakes.

Trauma-Informed Research in Sport, Exercise, and Health Qualitative Methods New book now out edited by Jenny McMahon & Kerry R. McGannon See our chapter led by @PatrickJachyra titled: Interview and Arts-Based Approaches for Research with Autistic Adults routledge.com/Trauma-Informe…
Education, employment, policy need to acknowledge this upfront: autistics have higher barriers to success in part due to the way they are treated by others. Have strong potential but need support to match the extra barriers.
Findings among the first to be demonstrated in this experimental scenario where people aren't actually judged, only measuring expectations of being judged. Not surprising that this experience is more negative for autistics. Closing the gap requires better effort for typicals.
Highlights the Double Empathy Problem in which mis-alignment of expectations between people with different experiences of the world creates difficulty empathizing with each other. Efforts to build bridges of understanding can improve wellbeing for autistic people. It takes all.
"Across the whole sample, higher social anxiety predicted greater tendency to anticipate rejection from others, not autistic traits." Early rejection may build negative self-bias which in turn influences expectations.
Congrats to @e_mine_gurbuz for publication of new paper on experimental experience of social rejection in autism. Autistic adults don't expect to be liked. Probably due to negative experience. rdcu.be/dFfZ0 @MimHanley @debbieriby @DurhamPsych @EmoryAutism
