众所周知，焦虑在患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的年轻人中很常见，但人们对他们的经历的性质或他们用来生活和科普焦虑的策略知之甚少。在这项定性研究中，我们开始通过两个焦点小组来解决这个问题，其中包括11名患有ASD的年轻人，以及10名父母和专业人士。每组的参与者被要求讨论焦虑的触发因素，焦虑的后果，以及他们使用的策略，想要使用的策略，或者看到ASD患者使用的策略来管理他们的焦虑。参与者确定了焦虑的多种个人和环境来源，并注意到它们对家庭，工作，大学和社区的日常生活产生的重大影响。他们的个人经验和生活和应对焦虑的策略。
Anxiety is known to be common among young adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), yet little is known about the nature of their experiences or the strategies they use to live and cope with their reported anxiety. In this qualitative study, we began to address this issue through two focus groups involving 11 young adults with ASD, and 10 parents and professionals. Participants in each group were asked to discuss the triggers for anxiety, the consequences of anxiety, and strategies they have used, would like to use, or have seen individuals with ASD use to manage their anxiety. The participants identified multiple personal and environmental sources of anxiety, noting the substantial impact they have on their everyday lives at home, work, university, and in the community. Their individual experiences and strategies for living and coping with anxiety are presented.
