■研究发现，自闭症儿童可以在多语种学校和社区中导航，而不会损害他们的语言技能或学校成功。然而,他们可能会在美国国内遇到具体挑战，教育和医疗保健系统不足以满足他们的需求。这篇综述审查了46项基于美国的关于该主题的研究，发现揭示了关于多语言和自闭症的持续基于缺陷的想法（例如，专业人士建议自闭症学生只用英语说和学习），并伴有多语种儿童对自闭症的不平等识别模式。这些发现突出了不成比例和获得教育和医疗保健资源不足的问题。然而,最近的研究表明，将儿童的母语纳入教育中不仅可以提高学习和行为结果，还可以提高解决问题和计划等认知功能。作为一个整体，目前的研究表明，有意解决语言多样性问题将使教育和医疗系统更好地为自闭症儿童服务。
UNASSIGNED: Research has found that autistic children can navigate multilingual schools and communities without harming their language skills or school success. However, they may encounter specific challenges within the United States, where educational and healthcare systems are insufficiently equipped to meet their needs. This
review examined 46 US-based studies on the topic and findings reveal persistent deficit-based ideas about multilingualism and autism (e.g., professionals recommending that autistic students only speak and learn in English) accompanied by patterns of unequal identification of autism among multilingual children. These findings highlight issues of disproportionality and inadequate access to educational and healthcare resources. However, recent studies indicate that incorporating a child\'s native language in education not only enhances learning and behavioral outcomes but also boosts cognitive functions like problem-solving and planning. Taken as a whole, current research suggests that intentionally addressing linguistic diversity will allow educational and medical systems to better serve autistic children.
