Hi all,

I hope this is ok to post here, I'd love to be able to include as many responses as possible before closing the survey soon.

I am currently carrying out research to learn more about autistic people’s preferences for the language used to communicate about autism and whether there is a relationship between language, stigma, and social identity. There is currently a lack of research in this area and it has been suggested that changes to the language used may help to reduce stigma within society.

If you are 18+, live in the UK, and have a spare 5 minutes to complete the anonymous survey to share your opinion, or if you are able to share it with others, I would be so very appreciative. There is more information about the survey on the link and also a link at the end to enter a prize draw to win £10 Amazon vouchers.

Thank you so much for reading,

Julia

    Already taken part, guys. To be honest with you, I dislike being autistic. I really loathe it. But please respect my choices and opinions, because I feel I didn't have a choice to be born with autism.
