Cognitive-Behavior Therapy for Social Anxiety Does Not Increase Reports of Camouflaging Behavior in Autistic Adults: Results From an Exploratory Study buff.ly/TKqPXgn

Useful panel on idionomics and process based empirical practice - Baljinder Sahdra (speaking), Steve Hayes, Stefan Hofmann, Cristobal Hernandez, Diana Hill, Clarissa Ong Building analytic tools for interventions based on a different set of assumptions than categories or “normality” #ACBSWC2025

Lauren Lawson from ACTUALISE Lab shared an fascinating study at #ACBSWC25 on idionomic interactions through the day between sleep and mental health for autistic adults. Innovative work from La Trobe University!

#ACBS25 opening plenary - Baljinder Sahdra makes the compelling argument for idionomics, bridging the gap between group-level findings and individual experiences : what is considered "evidence" in evidence-based practice? Heterogeneity is the norm!
