Résumé

La pandémie de Covid-19 et les confinements associés ont offert des occasions de s'engager dans la nature et de renouer avec elle, de nombreuses personnes ayant signalé des bénéfices associés pour le bien-être. Les recherches menées pendant la période de la pandémie se sont largement concentrées sur la manière dont les populations neurotypiques ou générales ont vécu la nature ; on en sait moins sur la façon dont les personnes autistes ont utilisé la nature pour soutenir leur bien-être pendant cette période. Dans cette étude qualitative par enquête menée auprès de 127 adultes autistes au Royaume-Uni, nous avons utilisé une analyse thématique réflexive des réponses fournies dans des zones de texte afin d'élaborer deux thèmes : le répit dans la nature et la connexion au milieu d'une déconnexion généralisée. Pour certains adultes autistes pendant la pandémie, la nature offrait une distance physique par rapport aux autres ou aux foyers surpeuplés, leur permettant d'utiliser la nature pour ressentir un soulagement du stress. En outre, certains participants se sont sentis davantage psychologiquement connectés à la nature elle-même pendant la pandémie, tandis que pour d'autres, la nature a servi de moyen de se connecter aux autres pendant une période potentiellement isolante. Ces résultats ont des implications pour les personnes autistes et leurs familles et aidants, qui pourraient souhaiter rechercher des activités fondées sur la nature afin de soutenir le bien-être au sortir de la pandémie. Résumé grand public La pandémie de Covid-19 et les confinements associés ont offert des occasions de passer du temps dans la nature, de nombreuses personnes signalant que cela bénéficiait à leur bien-être. Cependant, les recherches existantes menées pendant la période de la pandémie se sont concentrées sur la manière dont les populations générales ont vécu la nature ; on en sait moins sur la façon dont les personnes autistes ont utilisé la nature pour soutenir leur bien-être pendant la pandémie. Nous avons créé une enquête invitant des adultes autistes vivant au Royaume-Uni à répondre à des questions dans des zones de texte. Au total, 127 personnes ont répondu à notre enquête ; nous avons analysé leurs réponses à l'aide d'une méthode appelée analyse thématique réflexive et élaboré des thèmes à partir de régularités parmi l'ensemble des réponses. Nous avons élaboré deux thèmes : le répit dans la nature et la connexion au milieu d'une déconnexion généralisée. Pour certains adultes autistes pendant la pandémie, la nature offrait une distance physique par rapport aux autres ou aux foyers surpeuplés, ce qui les a aidés à réduire leur stress. En outre, certains participants se sont sentis davantage psychologiquement connectés à la nature elle-même pendant la pandémie, tandis que pour d'autres, la nature a servi de moyen de se connecter aux autres pendant une période potentiellement isolante. Ces résultats sont importants pour les personnes autistes et leurs familles et aidants, qui pourraient souhaiter rechercher des activités fondées sur la nature afin de soutenir le bien-être au sortir de la pandémie.

The Covid-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns provided opportunities to engage and reconnect with nature, with many people noting associated benefits to well-being. Research from the pandemic period has largely focused on the way neurotypical or general populations experienced nature; less is known about how autistic people used nature to support well-being during this time. In this qualitative survey study of 127 autistic adults in the United Kingdom, we used reflexive thematic analysis of text box responses to develop two themes: respite in nature and connecting amid widespread disconnection. For some autistic adults during the pandemic, nature provided physical distance from others or from crowded homes, enabling them to use nature to experience relief from stress. In addition, some participants felt more psychologically connected to nature itself during the pandemic, while for others, nature served as a way of connecting with others during a potentially isolating time. These findings have implications for autistic people and their families and carers who may want to seek out nature-based activities to support well-being in the wake of the pandemic. Lay abstract The Covid-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns provided opportunities to spend time in nature, with many people reporting that this benefitted their well-being. However, existing research from the pandemic period has focused on the way general populations experienced nature; less is known about how autistic people used nature to support their well-being during the pandemic. We created a survey that invited autistic adults living in the United Kingdom to reply to text box questions. A total of 127 people responded to our survey; we analysed their responses using a method called reflexive thematic analysis and developed themes based on patterns among all the responses. We developed two themes: respite in nature and connecting amid widespread disconnection. For some autistic adults during the pandemic, nature provided physical distance from others or from crowded homes, which helped them reduce their stress. In addition, some participants felt more psychologically connected to nature itself during the pandemic, while for others, nature served as a way of connecting with others during a potentially isolating time. These findings are important for autistic people and their families and carers who may want to seek out nature-based activities to support well-being in the wake of the pandemic.
