Exploring autism parenting, social support, and stigma in a Reddit community
Background Online communities provide a space for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder to discuss social support needs and experiences. Objective This study examined posts in an online Reddit community about autism ( N = 971; published in October 2024). Method We trained a large language model to code anonymized posts based on the presence of social support types (informational, emotional, network), positive and negative sentiment, a…
Social Support Seeking, Appraisals of Work-Life Balance, and Their Associations With Depressive Symptoms During Covid-19
The COVID-19 pandemic severely disrupted work-life boundaries, resulting in widespread psychological distress. This study examines how a perceptual appraisal (perceived work-life balance) and a communication behavior (direct support seeking) were associated with depressive symptoms among U.S. professionals during the early pandemic. A cross-sectional survey (N = 396) was conducted. Data were analyzed using ordinary least squares regression, with …

Theorising equality in education: What can be learnt from the field of additional support needs
L’article porte sur les conséquences de la Loi écossaise sur l’Éducation (2004), favorisant l’accompagnement éducatif des élèves en difficultés d’apprentissage, y compris en raison de leur milieu défavorisé. L’objectif est redistributif mais la loi n’est pas appliquée. Alors que les enfants ayant des besoins d’accompagnement supplémentaires ont plus de chances d’habiter dans des quartiers défavorisés, ils sont plus identifiés comme atteints de tr…
Parental experiences of dealing with disputes in Additional Support Needs in Scotland: Why are parents not engaging with mediation
Partnerships with parents, particularly in the field of education, have featured prominently in policy rhetoric for many years, but routes of redress have not had much attention until relatively recently. The development of Alternative Dispute Resolution in the UK reflects the situation in several jurisdictions (e.g. Norway, Germany, the Netherlands) where citizens can choose not to go to court to resolve administrative disputes. Under the Educat…
Additional support needs reforms and social justice in Scotland
New additional support‐needs legislation in Scotland sought to recognise the way in which poverty, as well as individual impairment, contribute to the creation of children's difficulties in learning. As well as identifying a wider range of needs, the legislation sought to provide parents, irrespective of social background, with more powerful means of challenging local authority decisions on resource allocation, with the aim of delivering a fairer…
Count us in’ – achieving inclusion in Scottish schools: An analysis of policy
Inclusive education is now established as part of a global agenda and as such national governments, and their agencies, strive to produce and implement policies to promote inclusion. Scotland is no exception and in 2002 Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Education (HMIe) published a review of ‘good practice’ in the field of inclusion in Scottish schools. This paper is an analysis of the HMIe policy document in terms of research ‘of ’ policy, with anal…
Computer-Mediated Social Support, Older Adults, and Coping
One important new context of communication for older adults is computer-mediated communication (CMC). Although the Internet has become an important resource for information, little is known about the ways in which individuals use this technology for social support. Older adults (mean age = 62) using SeniorNet and other related websites completed an on-line questionnaire (N = 136) investigating social support in the computer-mediated environment. …
The effect of social cues on the eating behavior of obese and normal subjects1
Schachter's externality hypothesis suggests that overweight individuals are more likely to be induced to eat by salient external cues than normal weight individuals. While a range of studies have demonstrated the plausibility of this hypothesis in the case of sensory stimuli (e.g., taste cues), there is little evidence that the hypothesis applies to social stimuli. The current study examines this latter proposition by exposing male and female, ov…
