PLoS ONE
The journal “PLoS ONE” (ISSN:1932-6203) is represented in the Autistic Autism Scholarship Project. Among its recorded publications, 19 have at least one author identified as autistic. This represents 36 autistic authors counted across those publications.
Publications by year
Only publications recorded in this project are included.
This chart adds together, for each year, the number of autistic authors reported for each publication. The same person is counted again when they appear on more than one publication. The green portion shows the autistic authors who can be identified as distinct people in that year. When a publication mentions autistic authors without naming them, the number stated in the publication is used; if no number is given, two people are counted.
An autistic author is counted once, in the year of their earliest recorded publication in this journal within the project. Only authors identified individually can be included in this indicator.
