- 요약The present study took a DisCrit approach to meta-analyze quantitative self-reports from autistic youth pertaining to internalizing mental health experiences over the past decade, while integrating qualitative information to center autistic voices and emphasize the social mechanisms which impact these experiences. Self-reports from autistic youth showed a significant, very small increase in severity of internalizing mental health problems after the COVID-19 pandemic began. Qualitative information gleaned directly from autistic youth suggested that personal, relational, and support resources play a role in their wellbeing, and that uncertainty about the future increases feelings of anxiety. Both access to resources and uncertainty about the future were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which provides a possible contextualization to the observed increase in internalizing mental health problems following the COVID-19 pandemic onset. An analysis of the relation of gender as a social context to mental health revealed that autistic adolescents identified as female reported heightened severity of internalizing problems compared to adolescents identified as male. Further context directly from female-identifying autistic youth revealed patterns of intersectional bias, as well as different experiences with relationships, autistic identity, and masking compared to reports from males. Further, DisCrit analysis highlighted that there is a paucity of research in this area which accounts for intersectionality and social exposures in relation to autistic youths' mental health. This places emphasis on the need for future research which intentionally interrogates the intersections of systemic racism, ableism, classism, and sexism in relation to lived experiences with autistic youth.
