Abstract

Participatory user interface design with adolescent users on the autism spectrum presents a number of unique challenges and opportunities. Through our work developing a system to help autistic adolescents learn to recognize facial expressions, we have learned valuable lessons about software and hardware design issues for this population. These lessons may also be helpful in assimilating iterative user input to customize technology for other populations with special needs.

Co-designing with Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder: From Ideation to Implementation
OzCHI '19: Proceedings of the 31st Australian Conference on Human-Computer-Interaction

Most co-design-based Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) research is conducted with children and does not involve the participants directly. Studies have shown that people with ASD can take on the co-designer role in early phases of the software design ...
Sexting experiences and motivations among adolescents with ADHD and ASD
Abstract
Sexting (i.e., to send and receive self-produced sexual materials) has become a common element in adolescents’ socio-sexual exploration. Although often harmless, sexting also involves the risk of abuse, and potentially more so for some ...
Highlights
- Adolescents, including those with ADHD/ASD, mainly use sexting for sexual gratification and exploration.
Longitudinal association of adolescents’ perceptions of parental mediations and compulsive Internet use
Abstract
Today's adolescents do not know a life without the Internet, which is here to stay. Much of adolescents' Internet consumption takes place at home. Accordingly, it is imperative that parents are centrally positioned to aid adolescents to maximize ...
Highlights
- Parental encouragement reduced adolescents' compulsive Internet use (CIU).
- CIU constantly triggered parental worry in all time periods.
- CIU predicted parental monitoring only across the school years.
- CIU instigated parental ...
