Simon M. Bury et al.

Summary: There has been a recent shift from person-first to identity-first language in describing autism. Australian adults diagnosed with autism rated and ranked autism-related terms, with "person on the autism spectrum" being the most preferred term. The study revealed that autism is seen as a part of individual identity, highlighting the importance of rejecting stigmatizing and medicalized language while promoting diversity.

Rena Shrestha et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the knowledge of Nepalese Female Community Health Volunteers on social attention, communication development, and early signs of autism before, immediately after, and 12-months following training.

The FCHVs also reported a positive impact of the training on their work.
