Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Objectives Informing parents whose child has just been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a major challenge. The purpose of this research is to identify the informational needs of parents of children recently diagnosed with ASD as well as the barriers and facilitators encountered in their search for information. Methods Qualitative research using the focus group method was conducted with three groups of parents of young children or adolescents diagnosed with ASD within the last two years. Parents were recruited through a hospital clinic. Two groups were parents with one or more risk factors related to low health literacy: single parenthood, low level of schooling, unemployment, recent immigration. A qualitative content analysis was conducted to explore the process of searching for information on autism. Based on the theoretical framework of health literacy, various components were analyzed in terms of access, understanding, interpretation, and use of information for decision-making. Results The results display that there is a general lack of information on autism, as well as concerns about the quality of the information found on the Internet. All parents expressed difficulty understanding the information they found on their own or in the resources, they were offered. They also shared a desire to access sources of information that present autism in a positive way. The use of information for decision-making was limited. In addition, the obstacles encountered while searching for information revealed the importance of social support. Many of the parents reported feeling stigmatized and judged by others because of their child's behavior. Conclusions The results demonstrate the need to respond to the real informational needs of parents and to adapt the resources used during the diagnosis period, particularly for those with lower literacy levels. In addition, the way of communicating about the diagnosis needs to be reviewed. In order to address these literacy issues, it is important to offer various forms of social support in combination with informational support. In order to reduce psychological distress, it is necessary to provide support when announcing the diagnosis and raise awareness about autism to reduce the stigma experienced by autistic persons and their loved ones.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
