The journey continues....with new research from our group ongoing - and with new developments for Triple-A, such as a focus on PE specifically, and with a whole-school in-person version of the training! Watch this space……

Once again, thank you to all the wonderful children, young people, parents and teachers who took part in the underpinning research, and to our amazing team of autistic people, parents, teachers and academics who co-designed the training tool. @21andsensory.bsky.social

It’s been such an interesting and worthwhile journey so far - with over 8000 users and considerable evidence of positive impact on understanding and practice. Here we share our new pre-print on the development of Triple-A, including analysis of its use and impact so far: doi.org/10.31234/osf...

The 7-10yo data were collected at @durhamdevsci.bsky.social 's Junior Scientist community event. You'd think a big noisy hall, competing with cool VR studies, would be tough for good data collection but I've never seen an effect quite this clean!

We could have picked multiple crucial papers from @dramypearson.bsky.social this year, covering topics that are often neglected when it comes to autistic wellbeing. This one is no exception: the challenges of burnout for autistic mothers 4/m
