The contributors offer possibilities for channels of activity through which youth on the autism spectrum may find acceptance, affirmation, and kinship with others. “Positive social updraft” characterizes the social channels through which people of difference might be swept up into broader cultural currents such that they feel valued, appreciated, and empowered. A social updraft provides cultural meditational means that include people in a current headed “upward,” allowing people of atypical makeups to become fully involved in significant cultural activity that brings them a feeling of social belonging.Palgrave Studies In Play, Performance, Learning, and DevelopmentCommunity psychologyEnvironmental psychologySocial workHealth psychologyApplied theaterCultural studiesArt educationCommunity and Environmental Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20070Social Workhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X21000Health Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y12020Theatre and Performance Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/415000Cultural Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040Creativity and Arts Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O11000Community psychology.Environmental psychology.Social work.Health psychology.Applied theater.Cultural studies.Art education.Community and Environmental Psychology.Social Work.Health Psychology.Theatre and Performance Studies.Cultural Studies.Creativity and Arts Education.155.9Smagorinsky Peteredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910154814603321Creativity and Community among Autism-Spectrum Youth1577546UNINA
