Autism and Ageing by Rose Matthews https://padlet.com/rosematthewsresearch/lm82dpyrf9cij1hq Resources to accompany ‘Last but not least: Later life experiences of autistic people’ @AutismPractice #ProfConf23 en-us 2023-02-05 08:19:31 UTC 2025-10-06 21:07:25 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/1954704966/13da360be4ec8514c959f61eea5b35bb/31F3CC8B_B3DA_42B7_B415_8FAC2923085D.jpeg ‘Last but not least: Later life experiences of autistic people. Rose Matthews rosematthewsresearch https://padlet.com/rosematthewsresearch/lm82dpyrf9cij1hq/wish/2468816206 Why do we know so little about older autistic people, why does it matter, and what can we do about it?
The relative invisibility of older autistic people is apparent in daily life, autism research, and autistic communities.
In a society focused on youth and fitness people are reluctant to consider age-related issues such as disability, death and dying. They are also unaware of the potential joys, satisfactions and compensations of ageing.
This presentation explores autistic ageing in relation to peri/menopause, relationships, and the end of life, using lived experience, research, and autistic accounts to give glimpses of uncharted territory.

This approach may be particularly useful for exploring autism-related issues in under-studied and under-diagnosed groups, such as older adults (Mason et al., 2022). As support needs often change with age, knowledge about the experiences of self-harm and suicidality in middle-aged and older adults on the autism spectrum could give indications about the support needs for this large and growing population (Stuart-Hamilton et al., 2010). https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10803-022-05595-y]]> 2023-02-05 09:30:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rosematthewsresearch/lm82dpyrf9cij1hq/wish/2468833265 A longitudinal study on cognitive aging in autism.

As this is the first large-scale longitudinal study on cognitive aging in autism, these findings contribute unique knowledge to the autism literature. However, careful interpretation of the current conclusions is essential, and more longitudinal research is key to understand cognitive decline in older autistic adults precisely, and more generally throughout the autistic population. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0165178123000161]]> 2023-02-05 09:36:53 UTC https://padlet.com/rosematthewsresearch/lm82dpyrf9cij1hq/wish/2468835681 Autism, masking and ageing.

Overall, there is a notable lack of studies that focus on older autistic adults and on ageing-relevant topics, with a particular absence of the autistic voice in the research. Resultantly, there remains a gap in our knowledge regarding the specific circumstances and needs of autistic adults in older age. In moving forward, it will be important to fill this gap with inclusive research to guide the most relevant and effective work that improves outcomes for this population.

T.A.M. McDonald rosematthewsresearch https://padlet.com/rosematthewsresearch/lm82dpyrf9cij1hq/wish/2468853537 Recent research has suggested that some individuals, such as women, older individuals, and people with higher intelligence, may not be given the diagnosis of autism even when they should receive one. These individuals, called the “lost generation,” might also not receive treatments or services that they would be qualified for if they had an autism diagnosis.

 ‘In Study 2 we explored the experiences of 8 autistic adults diagnosed as adults. We found that autistic adults had lower quality of life outcomes and higher autistic trait levels which related to age of diagnosis, and qualitative findings indicated that while adults were empowered by their new diagnosis, they still require specialized supports. Our findings are discussed, emphasizing future directions and implications for the current care system in place for autistic adults.’
