Parents continue to support to autistic university students, and consequently, experience considerable stress.: To explore the experiences of parents of specialist peer mentored university students and to examine these using the ICF as a theoretical framework.: Thirteen semi-structured interviews were completed and analyzed using thematic analysis. Directive content analysis linked the data to the ICF core set for autism spectrum disorders (ASD).: Five interrelated themes emerged: , and . Specialist peer mentoring was linked to Activity and Participation (44%) and Environmental factors (32%) of the ICF core set for ASD.: These results add to the specialist peer mentoring evidence-base, and indicate perceived benefits for autistic university students and their parents. An unintended consequence was that parents broadened their participation in activities.
父母继续支持自闭症大学生,因此他们经历了相当大的压力。本研究旨在探索专家朋辈导师大学生的父母的经历,并使用国际功能、残疾和健康分类(ICF)作为理论框架来研究这些经历。研究采用半结构式访谈的方法,共完成了 13 次访谈,并使用主题分析进行了分析。指令性内容分析将数据与自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的 ICF 核心集联系起来。研究结果共出现了五个相互关联的主题:压力和支持、父母的角色和经历、沟通和关系、朋辈导师的作用、以及对未来的展望。专家朋辈导师与 ICF 核心集的活动和参与(44%)以及环境因素(32%)有关。这些结果增加了专家朋辈导师的证据基础,并表明自闭症大学生及其父母认为这种方式有好处。一个意想不到的后果是,父母扩大了他们的活动参与。
