"The #Psychology of #Autism" is an enlightening and informative webinar hosted by Exceptional Individuals. The webinar delves into the impact of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) on the psychology of individuals affected by it.

The host Nat Hawley explores the various psychological theories of autism, which seek to explain the characteristic behaviour and thinking style of individuals with autism in terms of underlying psychological processes. Participants will learn about how autistic people process information about other people and the environment and how this processing style affects their behaviour.

The webinar provides an in-depth understanding of the psychology of autism, examining the various factors that contribute to the condition and the ways in which it affects the individual. The webinar also explores the unique strengths and abilities of individuals with autism and how these can be harnessed to support their development and success.

The webinar is interactive and provides participants with opportunities to ask questions and engage in discussions with other attendees. Participants will leave the webinar with a better understanding of the psychology of autism and the ways in which it can be supported.

Overall, "The Psychology of Autism" is a must-attend webinar for anyone interested in learning more about the psychological underpinnings of autism and the ways in which it can be better understood and supported.

What is Psychology Day

Psychology Day at the United Nations is a celebration of psychology in the context of the United Nations. It provides an opportunity for psychology to share with U.N. Permanent Missions, U.N. agencies, NGOs and the private sector the activities of psychologists at the U.N. and the role of psychology in addressing concerns of global importance. Psychology Day also introduces psychologists and psychology students to psychology's current and potential involvement in U.N. activities and issues.
