The nature of friendship in children with autism spectrum disorders: A systematic review (2014, methodology): “The majority of comparative studies also reported a lack of relationship stability as indicated by lower duration of friendship as compared to typical peers (Bauminger & Shulman, 2003; Rowley et al., 2012).”
Friendship motivations, challenges and the role of masking for girls with autism in contrasting school settings (2018, background): “…targets of high levels of bullying (Reid 2011; Sterzing et al. 2012; Zablotsky et al. 2014), particularly during adolescence (Wainscot et al. 2008), with reports suggesting that between 40% and 82% of young people with autism have been bullied at school (Rowley et al. 2012; Schroeder et al. 2014).”
Bullying of children and adolescents with autism spectrum conditions: a ‘state of the field’ review (2015, background): “On a similar note, Rowley et al.
