患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的人进入中学后教育的人数正在增加，但很少有人毕业。大约40-70%的ASD患者经历过心理健康问题，这些问题可能是学生无法完成学位的一个因素。使用加拿大同行辅导计划的数据，本研究探讨了心理健康问题的患病率与ASD的中学生，他们的服务利用模式，并获得他们需要的服务的障碍。许多参与者报告说，他们至少经历了一次同时发生的心理健康诊断，尽管他们获得了一些心理健康支持，但他们报告说需要更多的支持。与会者还指出，在获得服务时面临多重障碍。本研究的结果告知教育工作者，辅导员和其他专业人员如何最好地支持ASD患者，以确保积极和成功的中学后教育。
The number of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) enrolling in post-secondary education is increasing, yet few graduate. Approximately 40–70% of individuals with ASD experience a mental health issue, and these issues may be a contributing factor for students not completing their degrees. Using data from a Canadian peer-mentorship program, the present study examined the prevalence of mental health issues in post-secondary students with ASD, their service utilization patterns, and barriers to accessing services they need. Many participants reported experiencing at least one co-occurring mental health diagnosis, and although they accessed some mental health supports, they reported requiring more support. Participants also indicated facing multiple barriers when accessing services. Findings from the present study inform how educators, counselors, and other professionals can best support individuals with ASD to ensure positive and successful post-secondary education.
