Appendix E Raw Data: Neurodiversity-Affirming Autism Practice Review, 2020-2025

Jon Liñares-de-Maarcos published a dataset on figshare in April 2026 containing raw data from a systematic review. The review maps neurodiversity-affirming professional practice for autism, analyzing 76 peer-reviewed studies from 2020 to 2025. The data includes thematic analysis results on practice criteria and descriptive synthesis of 17 identified interventions.

Use Cases

• Analyzing conceptual themes of neurodiversity-affirming practice based on criteria like respect, identity, and community.
• Reviewing characteristics of identified interventions based on features like accessibility, autonomy, and professional training.
• Examining intervention goals based on categories such as well-being, strengths-based approaches, and non-normalization.
• Synthesizing outcomes of group-based psychoeducational interventions based on reported qualitative and preliminary quantitative results.

Strengths

• Includes data from 76 peer-reviewed studies, providing a defined scope for analysis.
• Thematic analysis covers three overarching themes with specific sub-criteria mentioned in the description.
• Identifies 17 specific interventions with details on their format and reported outcomes.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect publication bias inherent to the selected academic databases (Web of Science, Scopus, EBSCOhost).
