本文报道了对32名自闭症儿童父母礼貌污名的定性研究结果。结果表明,由于自闭症症状的极端破坏性,自闭症儿童的正常外表,以及公众对自闭症本质的了解和了解,自闭症具有独特的污名化方面。大多数父母认为自己因孩子的紊乱而蒙受耻辱。有一种强烈的趋势是,母亲比父亲更容易感到耻辱。有更严重残疾儿童的父母和12岁以下的儿童也更有可能认为自己被污名化了。
This paper reports the findings of a qualitative study of courtesy stigma among 32 parents of autistic children. The results indicate that autism has uniquely stigmatising aspects because of the extremely disruptive nature of autistic symptoms, the normal physical appearance of autistic children, and the lack of public knowledge and understanding regarding the nature of autism. Most parents perceived themselves to be stigmatised by their child's disorder. There was a strong tendency for mothers to feel more stigmatised than fathers. Parents with more severely disabled children and children who were under the age of twelve were also somewhat more likely to perceive themselves to be stigmatised.
