I never wrote on here but just wanted to let everyone who took part in my research know, I got a first on my dissertation!! Thanks for your help #autism#functioninglabels
@CATS_Chris@leoniedelt Hi I’d be really interested in looking at this to become better informed. For some reason it won’t let me DM you but my email is [email protected]
I really appreciate your incite as it adds to my research and my understanding
@CATS_Chris@leoniedelt No it’s fine! I completely get your angle. I have come from the angle that autistic people rarely get their voice in research. Though I have come to understand people who are labelled ‘low functioning’ are unable to give their voice and am definitely going to reflect upon this!
@CATS_Chris@leoniedelt Yes this something I have recognised and when I receive my data I will be able to analyse this further. I understand what you’re saying but like you said my study is based on the direct experiences of autistic people. In future this is something I can reflect upon and alter.
@CATS_Chris@leoniedelt ....but if you have any suggestions in how I can include people like your son I’d really appreciate it as every voice is important :) Thanks!
@CATS_Chris@leoniedelt ....difficulty communicating in different forms, so I thought by offering different forms of communication this may help slightly. I have chose to do an interview as I believe it will give me rich qualitative data ...

It's commonly known that #autismresearch studies predominately focus on boys and men.
Many researchers are now making it a priority to include female and nonbinary individuals into their work.
This could really transform our understanding of #autism 👇
