This commentary introduces a framework within which clinical and research experts in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can address public instances of evidence denial and promotion of pseudoscience related to ASD. This is a generalized extension of work by a World Health Organization (WHO) group dedicated to reducing the influence of Vocal Vaccine Deniers through educating advocates in how to effectively defuse their arguments. The WHO guidelines were informed by conceptual work on the "denialism" phenomenon, and by studies in psychology, communication, vaccine science, and public health. Our goal is to introduce these ideas to, and encourage discussion within, the ASD research community.

本评论介绍了一个框架，在这个框架内，自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的临床和研究专家能够应对与ASD相关的公开的证据否定和伪科学推广事件。这是世界卫生组织（WHO）一个小组工作的广义延伸，该小组致力于通过教导倡导者如何有效化解反疫苗者的论点来减少其影响。WHO的指导方针基于对“否定主义”现象的概念性研究，以及心理学、传播学、疫苗科学和公共卫生领域的研究。我们的目标是向ASD研究界介绍这些观点，并鼓励在该领域进行讨论。《自闭症研究》2017年，第10卷：1334 - 1337页。© 2017国际自闭症研究协会，威利期刊公司
