Research suggests that autistic people are at a higher risk of suicide than non-autistic people. Figures show that up to 66% of autistic adults had thought about suicide during their lifetime (compared to 20% of non-autistic adults), and up to 35% had planned or attempted suicide.
These researchers collectively contribute to forensic, social, and cognitive psychology, with work spanning offender behaviour, violence risk, sexual violence prevention, moral decision making, personality, and the psychological impact of digital and social environments.
