The power of a first impression and the trajectory it can set an individual on is something that impacts all people, and especially those with invisible disabilities. Societal norms and pragmatics are centered around neurotypical individuals and do not consider the perspective and neurology of the neurodivergent. What is the social norm for society can literally be impossible or physically uncomfortable for the neurodivergent, resulting in a mismatched doctor-patient relationship, an unintentionally inaccurate plan of care, or even a missed chance at a successful hire. We are presently in the neurodivergent movement where intentional inclusive practices are happening. First impressions coupled with curiosity and a better understanding of neurodivergence, could be the answer to a more positive relationship and outcome for all, no matter the situation or environment.
第一印象的影响力以及它可能为个人设定的轨迹会影响所有人，尤其是那些患有隐形残疾的人。社会规范和语用学以神经典型个体为中心，没有考虑到神经差异者的观点和神经学特征。对社会来说是社会规范的事情，对神经差异者来说可能实际上是不可能做到的，或者身体上会不舒服，这就导致了医患关系不匹配、护理计划无意中不准确，甚至错失成功入职的机会。我们目前正处于神经差异运动中，在这个运动中正在发生有意的包容行为。第一印象，再加上好奇心和对神经差异的更好理解，可能是在任何情况或环境下建立更积极关系并取得更好结果的答案。
