Implementing a Co-produced Curriculum for Neurodivergent Individuals in the Workplace.
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
purposeIndividuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), especially autistic individuals, are disproportionately unemployed and underemployed. Job coaches (JCs), family members (FMs), and employers can serve as supports to improve employment outcomes of adults with I/DD. To train these individuals to provide effective, strengths-based support, our team co-designed and co-produced a training curriculum entitled DIVERSE. In this study, we sought to understand barriers and facilitators to implement DIVERSE in the community.
methodsWe utilized a mixed-methods effectiveness-implementation hybrid design to determine the barriers and facilitators to implementation of DIVERSE. A total of 78 participants, including JCs, parents, and employers, completed the DIVERSE training and at least one quantitative survey. Twenty-five individuals were randomly selected to complete semi-structured interviews guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. Transcripts of interviews were analyzed by thematic analysis.
resultsHigh levels of DIVERSE acceptability, feasibility, and appropriateness were found in all participant groups. Qualitative results indicated more facilitators than barriers and more similarities across groups than differences. Major facilitators included the perception that DIVERSE is helpful and easy to complete, its fulfillment of a need in the community, and its compatibility with personal or organizational values. Major barriers included participants' individual needs for specific curriculum content and meeting each individual's expectations of the scope of topics covered in the curriculum.
conclusionsDIVERSE is a feasible, acceptable, and appropriate training for supporters of individuals with I/DD. Facilitators and barriers to implementing DIVERSE will be used to further disseminate the curriculum at a larger scale.
