Description
Fatma Efe and co-authors study stigma inside families in a 2024 paper on parents of children with autism. Parents often face anxiety and depression, and some absorb society's negative views into shame about themselves, a burden called internalized stigma, whose links with family life were little studied.
The case-control study compared about one hundred parents of autistic children with a similar number of controls at clinics in Adana. Questionnaires measured internalized stigma, anxiety, depression, and how well families functioned. Parents also shared background and how much they knew about autism. The analysis connects the parents' inner stigma with their mental health and household dynamics.
