Abstract in brief
This article explains how language used in autism research can reflect and reinforce ableist beliefs—ideas that discriminate against people with disabilities—sometimes unintentionally.
It traces the history of negative and harmful language about autism, showing how most past research has treated autism as something broken that needs fixing, which influences societal attitudes and self-perception among autistic individuals.
The authors offer practical suggestions for autism researchers to be more mindful of their language, helping them avoid ableist terms and promote more respectful and accurate communication about autism.]
Our paper encouraging researchers to avoid ableist language just reached a new milestone- 1,000 citations! We had no idea our paper would have such an impact, but we’re so grateful that it has! https://t.co/nv6iZcnn9X

How can our researchers avoid smacking down the autistic people they write about? Dr. @kbottemabeutel.bsky.social
has evidence-based advice, as, “Despite recent positive changes in how researchers write and speak about autism, ‘ableist’ language is still used.”

Yep, this is the case with most research articles on autism. The medical model is unquestioned. This default needs to change. @kbottemabeutel.bsky.social et al have good advice for fellow researchers about treating autistic people like humans rather than specimens:

Identity-first language (autistic person) is often preferred, but some people use person first (person with autism). Always ask for individual preference!

@HariSri108 Actually, I think it does matter, as language precedes action. See: https://t.co/c8xBSeluBg. Language is performative: it’s a reflection of power struggles and your language choice shapes how people are known and what opportunities they (don’t) get in life.Including institutions.
@katiewr31413491 I agree to use the specific known language preferences individual autistic people have regarding themselves, regarding how to refer to that person. That is also in the Avoiding Ableist Language: Suggestions for Autism Researchers paper.

In this commentary, we describe how language used to communicate about autism within much of autism research can reflect and perpetuate ableist ideologies (i.e., beliefs and practices that discriminate against people with disabilities), whether or not researchers intend to have such effects.

@lervag @lilacCourt @nordahlhansen “Autistic adults (including researchers and nonresearchers) have been writing and speaking about ableist language for several decades, but nonautistic autism researchers may not be aware of this work. We have compiled this material”
