They invite readers to think with them about the politics of identity and inclusion and ask whether neurodivergence is a disability, a difference, or both. They offer a bespoke approach to neurodivergence and consider the fine line between neurological and psychological understandings. The authors call for a decentering of neuronormativity in theories and practice and a liberation from the allure of normalcy. They place this within transactional analysis (TA) and its principles of OKness, social justice, openness, and mutuality. Finally, they highlight some limitations of the application of TA for neurodiversity and offer thoughts on an expanded treatment approach focused on phenomenology.","PeriodicalId":37049,"journal":{"name":"Transactional Analysis Journal","volume":"9 6","pages":"63 - 77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139452568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He examines progress in the field of brain hemisphere research and highlights perceptual differences between the right and left brain hemispheres, which actuate the Adult ego state. Applying this research to how the Adult ego state has been modeled in TA, the author questions whether a single model can capture the full functional capacity of the Adult and challenges a valorization of the Adult ego state. Ways in which current Adult ego state models might be adapted are suggested to accommodate the breadth of neurological variance in practitioners and clients. The author then reconceptualizes Adult ego state functioning to inform readers about how the Adult operates differently across neurotypes.","PeriodicalId":37049,"journal":{"name":"Transactional Analysis Journal","volume":"138 37","pages":"15 - 30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139453072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It seeks to rethink the ADHD diagnosis and proposes a TA-neurodiversity affirming lens for navigating neuronormativity as well as healing from its oppressive structural and systemic processes. In particular, impasses are explored in the context of how neuronormativity impacts relational material and drives adaptive masking patterns, racketeering, and script formation. The authors present the masking-authenticity triangle framework, which provides an intersectional and standpoint epistemological inquiry into the clinical presentation and developmental trajectory of neurodivergent masking.","PeriodicalId":37049,"journal":{"name":"Transactional Analysis Journal","volume":"131 49","pages":"91 - 106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139453376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
