Presentation Title: The Role and Impact of Family in Autistic Students' University Journeys

 

Presentation Description: This presentation will discuss findings from 3 studies conducted during my PhD: A scoping review on the role of family for autistic higher education students; an interview study on autistic students' family relationships and family support; and a quantitative online survey exploring links between autistic students' family support and student outcomes. I will also share reflections on the participatory elements of this research (steering group; consultation) as well as implications of the studies' findings.
