#CRAEresearchSummaries Evaluating measures to assess loneliness in autistic adults. Grace et al (2023) Questionnaires exist to assess loneliness, but do they apply to autistic adults? crae.ioe.ac.uk/evalu...#CRAEresearchSummaries Kana Grace, Anna Remington, Jade Davies and Laura Crane (2023)

I’m grateful for the privilege of reviewing papers by Japanese researchers - but so many still say things like “Autism Spectrum Disorder” or “they are impaired in…”. When I propose research to address these outdated views, I’m told it would “make Japan look bad”. Such injustice.

While RFK Jr. Made his remarks saying autistic life is a tragedy that destroys families, I sat right in front of him and made it a point to let him know he was wrong. My latest for @msnbc.com www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
