Associations Between Features of Employment and Job Satisfaction Among Autistic Adults.
Article in Journal of autism and developmental disorders, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeMany adults on the autism spectrum face challenges securing and maintaining employment. While research has focused on ways to improve employment rates, less is known about the employment experiences of autistic adults who obtain jobs and the factors that contribute to their job satisfaction. The present study had two aims: (1) to describe the levels of job satisfaction across several facets in a sample of working autistic adults and compare these scores to normative data from the general population; and (2) to examine the associations of employment features (full-time versus part-time work, job supports, and perceptions of workplace climate) with facets of job satisfaction among autistic adults.
methodsParticipants included 108 adults with a diagnosis of autism who were working in community-based employment. Adults completed an interview focused on their employment experiences and an online survey assessing perceptions of workplace climate and job satisfaction.
resultsParticipants reported similar levels of job satisfaction across all facets when compared to normative data of similarly aged non-autistic peers. More positive perceptions of workplace climate were associated with all facets of job satisfaction.
conclusionThese findings emphasize the importance of a workplace climate for autistic adults that values diversity, makes employees feel safe, and fosters positive relationships between supervisors and supervisees.
