Pełny opis

Masking is a form of identity management involving consciously or unconsciously suppressing aspects of identity and action. Often seen in socially marginalised groups, it is found to contribute towards poorer outcomes for autistic people, and is related to higher prevalence of suicidality, exhaustion and burnout, and mental health difficulties. Autistic Masking offers a holistic understanding of the most up-to-date evidence in this field, with the aim of developing solid knowledge and practice in health, education and society.


Written to be accessible to everyday readers with an interest in autism as well as academics and professionals, the book deconstructs the predominant misconception that masking is purely a social strategy to 'blend in' with neurotypical (non-autistic) people. The authors consider the social context that facilitates impression management, including an individual's response to stigma or trauma, and take an intersectional approach to exploring how autistic identity may interact with other aspects of selfhood.
