Transdiagnostic research and the neurodiversity paradigm: commentary
on the transdiagnostic revolution in neurodevelopmental disorders by
Astle et al. Journal of Child Psychology & Psychiatry. Apr2022, Vol. 63
Issue 4, p418-420. 3p. Abstract: In their comprehensive and articulate
paper on the Transdiagnostic Revolution in Neurodevelopmental
Disorders, Astle, Holmes, Kievit and Gathercole (2021) 'consider how
well current classifications of neurodevelopmental disorders serve our
understanding'. They examine the lack of mapping between clinical
diagnoses such as ADHD or autism and research data at other levels of
explanation, including genetics, neural structure and function, and
cognition. The authors come to the conclusion that, if our goal is to
explain variability and complexity, understand mechanisms and guide
support decisions, 'diagnostic taxonomies that classify individuals in
terms of discrete categories are ill‐suited'. In this commentary, I explore
alignment between their account of the transdiagnostic revolution and
the neurodiversity paradigm and identify how transdiagnostic methods
may promote neurodiversity‐affirmative research and practice.
