Fun to share this new paper with @nordahlhansen and colleagues

we asked autistic people their views on portrayals of autism in TV and film

we need more diversity on screen, and more inclusion in the industry

Autism & "exceptional abilities" (or "islands of ability"), selective review, free https://t.co/Lz8Z0P5WuN note: EPF doesn't mean “missing the forest for the trees" & autistic strengths are often reported as deficits & is 46% (or 28.5% or 60%) a "small" portion of autistics?

PSA for autists: When people invite you to dinner, a movie or some other activity, the chances are the activity is just an excuse to meet up and the real objective of the gathering is to socialise. I find this endearing, but want to share it because for years I didn’t know this…

[Steven Kapp @drstevenkapp]

Review of interventions to treat autistics' mental health concludes against treating "core features of autism" to improve mental health, instead of mental health directly. Yet evidence lacking for specific interventions for autistics w/ poor mental health https://t.co/3Wjzr1nGku

"Autism interventions commonly recommend that adults extensively simplify their spoken language to help children understand what they say, but scientific evidence suggests that this practice may not be beneficial" https://t.co/xRSpksL5Lx overdue commentary, COIs, free

Let's make a list:
How can NTs be a better friend to autistics?

My students asked me this yesterday, and we had a great discussion. I'd love to gather more ideas.

The majority of individuals diagnosed with ASD in childhood still met the diagnostic criteria 10 years later, but a considerable proportion (35%) displayed loss of diagnosis. Loss of diagnosis was associated with higher IQ and being female. @Pernoan.

These studies never compare autism with other neurodevelopmental conditions, such as DLD. So even if they can differentiate those with autism diagnosis from controls, we have no idea of specificity.
