Résumé

La croissance de l'autoreprésentation autistique et du mouvement de la neurodiversité a suscité de nouveaux débats éthiques, théoriques et idéologiques au sein de la théorie, de la recherche et de la pratique relatives à l'autisme. Ces débats ont eu un impact réel dans certains domaines de la recherche sur l'autisme, mais leur influence est moins manifeste dans la recherche sur l'intervention précoce. Dans cet article, nous soutenons que toutes les parties prenantes des interventions dans l'autisme doivent comprendre et prendre activement en compte les points de vue des personnes autistes ainsi que la neurodiversité en tant que concept et mouvement. Ce faisant, les chercheurs et praticiens en intervention sont tenus de s'éloigner d'un programme normatif et d'accorder une attention diligente à l'adéquation avec l'environnement, aux trajectoires développementales autistiques, aux moteurs internes et aux expériences, ainsi qu'aux cibles d'intervention prioritaires pour les personnes autistes. Les chercheurs en intervention dans l'autisme doivent répondre à ces débats en recadrant l'efficacité, en développant des outils pour mesurer les résultats prioritaires pour les personnes autistes et en formant des partenariats avec les personnes autistes. Il existe un besoin urgent d'une réflexion et d'une explicitation accrues sur la manière dont les pratiques d'intervention s'alignent sur un cadre de neurodiversité, ainsi que d'une plus grande emphase, au sein des programmes d'intervention, sur les processus développementaux naturels, les stratégies d'adaptation, l'autonomie et le bien-être.

The growth of autistic self-advocacy and the neurodiversity movement has brought about new ethical, theoretical and ideological debates within autism theory, research and practice. These debates have had genuine impact within some areas of autism research but their influence is less evident within early intervention research. In this paper, we argue that all autism intervention stakeholders need to understand and actively engage with the views of autistic people and with neurodiversity as a concept and movement. In so doing, intervention researchers and practitioners are required to move away from a normative agenda and pay diligence to environmental goodness-of-fit, autistic developmental trajectories, internal drivers and experiences, and autistic prioritized intervention targets. Autism intervention researchers must respond to these debates by reframing effectiveness, developing tools to measure autistic prioritized outcomes, and forming partnerships with autistic people. There is a pressing need for increased reflection and articulation around how intervention practices align with a neurodiversity framework and greater emphasis within intervention programmes on natural developmental processes, coping strategies, autonomy, and well-being.
