NEW PAPER!!! In a nutshell, I look at effort vocalisations produced by parents when moving their infant's body and describe they ways in which these sounds are social, structured and make joint experiences public and shared. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Well done to Leanne Chrisostomou - I co-served on annual review of her dissertation critically examining ADOS's assessment of autistic people's communication. It reminded me of a critical commentary on ADOS by Sami Tamimi, Damian Milton, Virginia Bovell, & I: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

"when #autistic teenagers receive messages from family, peers, school, and wider society that they are ‘deficient’ socially, this influences their self-image & self-esteem, and drives the development of masking." sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

PhD viva passed! Great discussion about interaction within #autism diagnosis/the ADOS and the need for a strengths based approach to diagnosis. Thanks to my supervisors Iris Nomikou - @[email protected] Alessandra Fasulo and Beatriz Lopez, and examiners Dr. Michelle O’Reilly and Dr. Mark Haydon-Laurelut.

My #PhD thesis is available. With #NHS #Autism assessment data we demonstrate the benefits of a strengths based approach to diagnosis whilst showing the consequences of a deficit approach and limiting what occurs naturally in interaction. ResearchGate: researchgate.net/publication/38…
