Résumé

La pratique du camouflage social, ou la modification de ses comportements afin d’être mieux perçu par les autres dans son environnement, est ancienne. Récemment, elle a suscité beaucoup d’intérêt dans la mesure où elle concerne les personnes du spectre de l’autisme. La littérature sur l’autisme comprend des explorations de la manière dont le camouflage social devrait être défini, des raisons pour lesquelles il se produit (par exemple, les pressions sociétales qui y donnent lieu) et de ses répercussions sur la qualité de vie et la santé mentale. Dans cet article, nous complétons ces travaux par un modèle conceptuel axé sur les aspects cognitifs réflexifs, qui fournit une analyse sociale de la manière dont le camouflage social se produit, en ce qui concerne les coûts personnels et les gains sociaux potentiels. Ce modèle est éclairé à la fois par l’expérience vécue autistique (M.G.) et par les résultats de recherches actuelles. Nous espérons que ce modèle pourra servir d’outil pour autonomiser les personnes du spectre de l’autisme lorsqu’elles réfléchissent à la prise de décision sociale quotidienne et qu’il suscitera des recherches supplémentaires afin de comprendre les détails du camouflage social autistique, lesquels pourront, à leur tour, être utilisés pour affiner le modèle.

The practice of social camouflage, or the modification of one’s behaviors to be better perceived by others in one’s environment, is an old one. Recently, it has received much interest as it pertains to people on the autism spectrum. The autism literature includes explorations of how social camouflage should be defined, why it occurs (e.g., the societal pressures that give rise to it), and its impacts on quality of life and mental health. In this article we complement this work with a conceptual model focusing on reflective cognitive aspects, which provides a social analysis of how social camouflage takes place, with respect to personal costs and potential social gains. This model is informed both by autistic lived experience (M.G.) and current research findings. We hope that this model can serve as a tool to empower people on the autism spectrum when reflecting on every day social decision making and that it will spark further research to understand the details of autistic social camouflage, which can, in turn, be used to refine the model.
