• Which terms should be used to describe autism? Perspectives from the UK autism community (2016, background): “…‘deficit’ or ‘disorder’, which imply that any difficulties experienced by autistic people are a result of them being ‘broken’ in some way, their preference for the term ‘diversity’ is illustrative of a trend towards actively de-stigmatising autism (see also Ryan and Runswick-Cole, 2009).”
• Disabled children’s childhood studies: a distinct approach? (2014, background): “In accounts of disabled childhoods, children describe their parents as playing crucial roles in their lives; they are allies, teachers, facilitators and advocates (Ryan and Runswick-Cole 2008a).”
