Résumé

Cet article présente deux études qui ont exploré les attitudes de la communauté à l’égard de l’autisme en Australie, ainsi que les perspectives des personnes autistes et de leurs familles sur les attitudes de la communauté. Dans l’étude un, 2424 personnes (principalement non autistes) ont rempli une enquête sur les connaissances et les attitudes liées à l’autisme ; celle-ci a permis d’identifier un certain nombre de perceptions erronées et de lacunes dans les connaissances au sein de la communauté générale. Dans l’étude deux, 1353 personnes (principalement des parents et des aidants de personnes autistes) ont rempli une enquête sur les expériences liées à l’autisme ; celle-ci a permis d’identifier que la sensibilisation de la communauté à l’autisme ne semble pas s’étendre à la compréhension de la manière de soutenir les personnes autistes. Des recherches supplémentaires intégrant les perspectives à la fois des personnes autistes et de la communauté au sens large sont nécessaires, ainsi que le développement d’interventions de communication et d’éducation avec les personnes autistes plutôt qu’à leur sujet.

This paper presents two studies that explored community attitudes to autism in Australia; and autistic people and their families' perspectives of community attitudes. In Study One 2424 (primarily non-autistic) people completed a survey on autism-related knowledge and attitudes; identifying a number of misperceptions and knowledge gaps in the general community. In Study Two 1353 people (primarily parents and carers of autistic people) completed a survey on autism-related experiences; identifying that the community's awareness of autism does not appear to extend to understanding how to support autistic people. There is a need for more research which integrates the perspectives of both autistic people and the broader community; and the development of communication and education interventions, with rather than about autistic people.
