Possibility Mindset - New Publication

Glad to share my new publication in Educational Psychologist.

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00461520.2026.2689599

This work grew out of my time as a NISE Fellow at the The Frist Center for Autism and Innovation | Vanderbilt University

The paper introduces Possibility Mindset: It asks whether people perceive real “room to move”: whether they can change in ways that matter, whether environments will adapt in practice, and whether multiple legitimate pathways remain open.

Employers decide what is a “reasonable,” accommodation, often subjecting autistic employees’ requests to judgment based on perceived convenience rather than genuine need.

The accommodation needs of two autistic employees could even clash within the same workspace.

Who gets priority and who gets to decide?
