Effective inclusion practices for neurodiverse children and adolescents in informal STEM learning: a systematic review protocol
DiscussionThe synthesis of the findings resulting from various research and evaluation designs, across the K-12 age span, and across various informal STEM learning contexts, will lead to depth and breadth of understanding of ways to improve informal STEM learning programs for neurodiverse children and youth. The identification of informal STEM learning program components and contexts shown to yield positive results will provide specific recommendations for improving inclusiveness, accessibility, and STEM learning for neurodiverse children and youth.Trial registrationThe current study has been registered in PROSPERO.

Word Learning With Orthographic Support in Nonspeaking and Minimally Speaking School-Age Autistic Children
CONCLUSIONS: Minimally speaking or nonspeaking children with a diagnosis of autism benefit from orthographic support when learning new words. Further investigation is warranted to determine if this effect holds during face-to-face interactions using augmentative and alternative communication systems.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.22465492.PMID:37156246 | DOI:10.1044/2023_JSLHR-22-00549

From Puzzle to Progress: How Engaging With Neurodiversity Can Improve Cognitive Science
Cogn Sci. 2023 Feb;47(2):e13255. doi: 10.1111/cogs.13255.ABSTRACTIn cognitive science, there is a tacit norm that phenomena such as cultural variation or synaesthesia are worthy examples of cognitive diversity that contribute to a better understanding of cognition, but that other forms of cognitive diversity (e.g., autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder/ADHD, and dyslexia) are primarily interesting only as examples of deficit, dysfunction, or impairment. This status quo is dehumanizing and holds back much-needed research. In contrast, the neurodiversity paradigm argues that such experiences are not necessarily de...

Looked after children in prison as adults: life adversity and neurodisability
This study aims to understand whether these factors persist in LAC who are in prison as adults.Administrative data collected by the Do-IT profiler screening tool in a prison in Wales, UK, were analysed to compare sentenced prisoners who were LAC (n = 631) to sentenced prisoners who were not LAC (n = 2,201). The sample comprised all prisoners who were screened on entry to prison in a two-year period.Prisoners who were LAC scored more poorly on a functional screener for neurodisability (effect size = 0.24), and on four self-report measures capturing traits of dyslexia (0.22), attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (0.40), ...
