DDP Clinical and Research Rounds - June 11, 2025

The Influence of Social Media on The Perception of Developmental Disorders Featuring: Dr. Agata Dzwonek Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this presentation, participants will be able to: 1. Examine how social media platforms contribute to the overidentification and informal self-diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), particularly among adolescents and young adults. 2. Analyze the impact of influencer culture, viral trends, and algorithm-driven content on public perceptions of ASD versus other developmental disorders such as intellectual disability (ID). 3. Critically evaluate the clinical and societal implications of social media-driven narratives about ASD, including risks of misdiagnosis, stigma reinforcement, and diagnostic overshadowing of other neurodevelopmental conditions.
