journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13… Important paper about autistic people and the menopause. Very good to see this work. So little is known about this topic, and yet there are hundreds of thousands in need of its findings.
Great editorial from @milton_damian & Green on the production of knowledge… with added shout-out to neologistic thinkers who come up with new words to do the heavy lifting. doi.org/10.1177/136236… 1/2
Dear occasional teachers or care workers who take noise cancelling tech off autistic children "...because in real life, you'll have to cope with noise". No. We don't have to. I know this is wild, but...we can still use our headphones etc...everywhere else also. Get a grip.

📣 Our survey results on views of autistic people regarding ABA in Europe have just been released! It shows 78% of the participants were against or strongly against ABA, with only 4.2% in favour or strongly in favour. See more about it here: eucap.eu/projects/aba/ #Autistic
Please share this recruitment call for a brilliant neurodivergent high school student's honors thesis.
In autistic vs typical children, "no discernible difference in the extent of social attention... when they are interacting with an adult partner during recreational tasks"--calling into question social motivation/development theories psycnet.apa.org/record/2024-54… from @KissineMikhail
New study from the Project AIM team, examining selective and inadequate reporting practices in early childhood autism intervention research, led by the brilliant Micheal Sandbank. 1/3 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13…
Finding multiple reporting biases pervading the early autism intervention literature, free journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13… in autism research, "compounded reporting failure can ultimately lead to the designation of practices which are ineffective or even harmful as being evidence-based"
Can ABA Therapy Affirm Neurodiversity, as a recent paper suggests? The answer is no, writes Max Sparrow @UnstrangeMind—as ABA therapy cannot affirm neurodiversity without becoming something that is …not ABA therapy. At TPGA: thinkingautismguide.com/2024/02/can-ab… #neurodiversity
Here’s an ARFID / sensory hot take for you 🔥🔥🔥 Autistic children will try new foods when they feel safe enough to - That’s sensory AND emotional safety. Anxiety and sensory all wrapped up in a complex bundle of human feels 🥰
...using @therapist_ndc's excellent 'Performative Neurodiversity – the appropriation and watering down of a Human Rights Movement for profit' 2/2 therapistndc.org/performative-n…
How many hundreds of thousands of autistic children have been forced to do this stuff, based on no evidence? What happened to them? Where are they now? Why do we keep doing this? I sense that questionnaire is why. It's about prejudice and making us pay 100% of the price of that
And then, autistic children are forced to stop learning in their own natural & authentic ways, & made to play in ways to please other people. No-one asks them if this is adding quality of life. No-one checks for adverse effects. They are irrelevant, as long as they 'look normal'.
We are thrilled that SB483 has passed through the California Senate! #ShineOnMax

📊 Poll Question 📊 Do you believe that physiotherapists have enough medical knowledge and are qualified to assess the potential danger of restraint holds and their potential to cause death, serious physical, or psychological injury to children? #Physiotherapists #RestraintHolds…
‘Go play with your friends’ Most kids: Okay! Autistic me as a kid: These are my classmates not my friends. Plus, I’m so exhausted. Please may I spend some time alone?

Hey, #academics #universities so the Three Minute Thesis. How does that work for autistics? I mean, how is it #inclusive? I mean, I'm going find some of this a problem to start...#phdlife
journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13… Important paper about autistic people and the menopause. Very good to see this work. So little is known about this topic, and yet there are hundreds of thousands in need of its findings.
Great editorial from @milton_damian & Green on the production of knowledge… with added shout-out to neologistic thinkers who come up with new words to do the heavy lifting. doi.org/10.1177/136236… 1/2
Behavior analysts promoting "neurodiversity affirming" ABA?--which means "critical of ableist practices & not the principles of behavior. It is essential to discriminate between criticisms as an issue of ethics rather than an issue of science"? link.springer.com/article/10.100… COIs, free
In solidarity with everyone else who is able to access so much more, thanks to modern technology. Noise cancelling tech and other adaptations make life, and learning, doable for hundreds of thousands of us.
Dear occasional teachers or care workers who take noise cancelling tech off autistic children "...because in real life, you'll have to cope with noise". No. We don't have to. I know this is wild, but...we can still use our headphones etc...everywhere else also. Get a grip.
Anne on DSM-III-R quietly expanded autism diagnosis to a lifelong form (from 'infantile autism') w/ criteria similar to in DSM-IV, and wrote a connected handbook: abebooks.com/book-search/au… Around that time she also published 'Progress without Punishment' books.google.co.uk/books/about/Pr… 6/
She co-edited a Research Topic on Autism: The Movement Perspective with Liz Torres in 2013: frontiersin.org/research-topic… It includes her sensory-movement perspective ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… and frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…, which influenced my thinking and work: frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…. 4/
She was a pioneer for presuming competence, arguing in 1984 it is "the criterion of the least dangerous assumption" jstor.org/stable/43153291 (to give people opportunity and recognise their dignity, not to put people in recklessly dangerous situations)

Please share this recruitment call for a brilliant neurodivergent high school student's honors thesis.
Parents need to understand that feeling lonely and lost is usually due to a lack of autism-friendly social fabric and services and parent education, and that that is not the fault of one's autistic child, or of "autism." #neurodiversity
If you're looking for advice on parenting autistic kids, maybe avoid memoirs by parents who resent having autistic kids, refuse to learn what being an autistic human means, and show no respect for their children's boundaries, interests, rights, or privacy. thinkingautismguide.com/2018/03/the-to…

With great excitement, I am sharing with you @Farradeh5, @krysiawally and my new paper published. We have investigated perspectives regarding language about being autistic, regarding themselves and functioning. We also looked at community connectedness. link.springer.com/article/10.100…
Too many educators, intimidated by the magic phrase "science of learning," swallow dubious claims by proponents of traditional teaching. My new blog post looks at one example: "Cognitive Load Theory: An Unpersuasive Attempt to Justify Direct Instruction" - alfiekohn.org/blogs/clt/
@ekverstania Greg Hanleys work may give you a bit of ABA grooming speak, eg practicalfunctionalassessment.com/2021/09/09/a-p… He is apparently the most “ethical new” ABA
In autistic vs typical children, "no discernible difference in the extent of social attention... when they are interacting with an adult partner during recreational tasks"--calling into question social motivation/development theories psycnet.apa.org/record/2024-54… from @KissineMikhail
Autistic children (age 2-4 years) "engage in joint attention at frequent and typical levels during toy play with parents. Joint attention is achieved via typical behavioral pathways (hand rather than gaze-following)" cell.com/current-biolog… free
Many autistics are bummed at how work has devolved since the pandemic. Many found that working from home was ideal—but are now forced to return to the office. Yet research shows most workers do better when they can complete tasks on their own schedule. businessnewsdaily.com/15259-working-… 43/
