Research into MBTI® type, neurodivergence, and neurodiversity - A report from The Myers-Briggs Company [2024]

This seems to be an interesting and quite recent study that differenciates [in a very respectful way!] between participants that self-diagnosed and those who have an externally validated diagnose.

Today I have gotten up early to put the bin out, rang universal credit again, taken a parcel to drop off point and made dentist appointments over the phone.

I rang UC on Tuesday to tell then my new number, but realised that I’d mixed some of the numbers up, even thought copying directly from my phone 🙄

Going to treat myself plain, nothing on it rice cake 😂

[thanks, answer checked]

Can someone please check my maths for me?

My insulin pens hold 300u.
I take 80u per night.
So, each pen lasts 3.75 nights.

I'm gone for 6 weeks, which is 42 nights.

That means I need to take 12 pens.

Is that right?

Neurodiversity-affirming practices for library workers and patrons

This presentation explores neurodiversity-affirming practices for library workers and patrons. It begins by defining key terminology, and provides statistics and research justification such as the high rate of co-occurring mental health issues among autistic individuals. The presentation then delves into the history and recent use of neurodiversity-affirming principles, focusing on autistic self-advocate Sonny Jane Wise's 11 core principles. These principles are categorized into internal, external, and structural phases, and practical applications within library settings are discussed. The presentation encourages attendees to consider how these principles can positively impact library experiences and address potential challenges.

@grimalkina statistician/data scientist here who always scored higher on verbal than math and has #dyscalculia. I never thought about it this way before, but I think I like coding exactly because it is math made of words!
