Overcoming Stigma in Neurodiversity: Toward Stigma-Informed ABA Practice.
Review in Behavior analysis in practice, 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
Stigma, a social and cultural phenomenon, profoundly impacts the quality of life and mental health of neurodivergent individuals and their families. It often prevents individuals from seeking support or implementing evidence-based intervention recommendations and interferes with establishing trusting relationships with professionals. Therefore, applied behavior analysis (ABA) practitioners and researchers should understand and address stigma in our practice and research. In this article, I describe several forms of stigma-such as public, experienced, self, and affiliate stigma-that neurodivergent individuals and their families face, as well as the implicit stigma that ABA practitioners might have. Furthermore, recommendations for ABA practitioners to address stigma are discussed, including increasing awareness, assessing stigma, addressing implicit biases, and developing stigma-informed interventions to serve neurodivergent individuals and their families better.
