Résumé

Contexte : Des recherches récentes suggèrent que de nombreux adultes autistes souhaitent à la fois établir des relations socialement significatives et vivent divers types de relations. Cependant, leurs perceptions et préférences concernant l'établissement et la gestion de ces relations peuvent différer de celles des personnes non autistes. Méthode : Cette revue de cadrage a exploré les perceptions et préférences relationnelles des adultes autistes. En utilisant les lignes directrices Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews, une recherche systématique a identifié 1477 articles potentiellement pertinents, dont 14 répondaient aux critères d'inclusion. Les publications incluses examinaient les perceptions et préférences des adultes autistes concernant les amitiés, les relations romantiques/intimes et les relations de mentorat. Résultats : Les résultats ont révélé que de nombreux adultes autistes préfèrent interagir avec d'autres personnes autistes, favorisant souvent les interactions en ligne ou les liens fondés sur des intérêts communs et des activités structurées. En outre, de nombreux adultes autistes ont signalé des difficultés sociales et de communication dans les différents types de relations. Conclusions : Ces résultats confirment que de nombreux adultes autistes souhaitent et entretiennent diverses relations, certains exprimant le besoin d'un soutien supplémentaire pour les faciliter, les renforcer ou les maintenir. Cette revue met également en évidence la nécessité de recherches supplémentaires afin d'explorer un éventail plus large de types de relations chez les adultes autistes.

Background: Recent research suggests that many Autistic adults are both interested in forming socially significant relationships and experiencing a range of different relationship types. However, their perceptions and preferences for forming and managing these relationships may differ from those of non-autistic individuals. Method: This scoping review explored the relationship perceptions and preferences of Autistic adults. Using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines, a systematic search identified 1477 potentially relevant articles, of which 14 met the inclusion criteria. The included publications examined Autistic adults’ perceptions and preferences of friendships, romantic/intimate relationships, and mentoring relationships. Results: Findings revealed that many Autistic adults prefer engaging with fellow Autistic people, often favoring online interactions or connections through shared interests and structured activities. Additionally, many Autistic adults reported social and communication challenges across relationship types. Conclusions: These findings confirm that many Autistic adults desire and engage in a variety of relationships, with some expressing a need for further support in facilitating, strengthening, or maintaining them. This review also highlights the need for further research to explore a broader range of relationship types among Autistic adults.
