“…A notable percentage of parents reported stigma in the community was a diagnostic barrier, which a systematic review similarly identified as a source of stress among Chinese-American and Korean-American parents of children with autism. 9 When Chinese-American and Korean-American parents express concern about child development, health professionals should be aware of stigma as a possible diagnostic barrier, and thus, discussing general child development rather than directly describing autism symptoms may assist in maintaining engagement of families through the diagnostic process while simultaneously continuing efforts to increase community awareness of autism and importance of early intervention services. 10 Among those who needed language interpreters (57.1%), some parents reported that interpreters were unavailable when they needed them and did not fully assist in understanding discussions with the health care professional.…”

“…9 The stigma in the community affects the use of services for their child with autism. 10 Yet, Kim et al 9 concluded the literature on Chinese-American and Korean-American families of children with autism was only emerging because the review identified only a small number of mostly qualitative studies. Thus, in response, we conducted a statewide survey of parents with the following specific research questions: (1) What were parents' first concerns about their child's development, and to whom did they express these concerns?…”

“…Behind the United Kingdom and India, China now provides the third highest number of overseas-born residents to Australia, comprising 2.5% of the 2020 population, with twice the number of Chinese-born people living in Australia in June 2020 (650,640) compared to a decade earlier (Australia Bureau of Statistics, 2021 ). International migration – when one moves from one country to another (Sinha, 2005 ) – is itself a challenging experience and, for various reasons, migrants who have an autistic child face increased stressors (Kim et al, 2020 ; Lim et al, 2020 ).…”

“…For example, national statistics on Asian Americans with DDs are often aggregated with other racial groups, rather than having a separate category (e.g., see Zablotsky et al, 2017 ). A recent scoping review of research focused on East Asian Americans of children with autism found that parents had limited knowledge about autism and expressed shame and self-blame about their child’s diagnosis (Kim et al, 2020 ). The review identified only a small body of mostly qualitative studies concentrated in large urban areas, which suggests a need for research that examines Asian Americans’ experiences accessing and using child DD supports.…”
