Nurs Res Pract
December 2024
Center for Research in Social Studies and Social Intervention, Avenida Tres de Marzo s/n. 21071, Huelva 21071, Spain.
The aim of this study is to explore children's depictions of nursing professionals, identifying shared and differential visual and symbolic elements as a function of gender, the period during which the drawing was made (pre-/postpandemic) and whether or not one has a relative who works in the same profession. Drawing circumnavigates the limits imposed by literacy and gives a voice to children who are able to express their personal feelings and subconscious through the drawn object. Theories of social representations and identity strive to explore the way in which children perceive and value the role of nurses in society.

J Autism Dev Disord
January 2025
Department of Clinical Psychology, School of Health in Social Science, Medical School, University of Edinburgh, Teviot Place, Central Campus, Edinburgh, EH8 9AG, UK.
Much of the current autism and gender literature has been based within a medical deficiency model; where both are seen as deficiencies rather than differences. However, there is currently minimal knowledge about the experiences of being an autistic adolescent who is both assigned female at birth and has gender dysphoria (GD), whilst even less is known about their experiences of social identity, self-concept and resilience. This study aims to explore experiences of GD with a particular focus on identity and resilience to promote parent and healthcare staff understanding; particularly around gender-affirming care, to foster positive mental health outcomes.
