Centering Autistic Perspectives in Behavioral Intervention Discussions (NCT07165522)
Adapting and Testing a Novel Method of Engagement in Research: Centering Autistic Perspectives in Behavioral Intervention Discussions
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The Centering Autistic Perspectives for Behavioral Interventions Discussions (CAPBID) PCORI Science of Engagement Award will examine different community engagement approaches for bringing together autistic people, Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) providers, and other members of the autism community to advance a shared equitable dialogue around research priorities for ABA-related research. One of these approaches will be based on existing transformative and restorative justice methods and frameworks. This project also utilizes a community-driven participatory research approach that will center autistic leadership in all aspects of the project. The investigators hope that this research will pave the way for creating spaces where autistic people are heard in their experiences and can collaborate effectively with open-minded ABA providers about how to advance the next generation of care and research in the field. More broadly, the investigators aim to create engagement approaches that may be used to have conversations around critical and difficult issues faced by the autistic and autism communities, as well as other marginalized communities.
