A thesis is an aptitude test for students. The approval of the thesis is proof that the student has sufficient research and reporting skills to graduate but does not guarantee the quality of the research and the results of the research as such, and the thesis is therefore not necessarily suitable to be used as an academic source to refer to. If you would like to know more about the research discussed in this thesis and any publications based on it, to which you could refer, please contact the supervisor mentioned.
Abstract
Neurodivergent individuals experience less well-being, potentially due to poorer executive functioning and lower self-regulation. The current master's thesis is part of the project: 'From realistic self-knowledge to self-acceptance, self-regulation, well-being and meaningful life: guidance of identity development amongst neurodivergent individuals.' Four main themes are important in this research, namely: Self-knowledge, self-acceptance, self-regulation, and self-realization. There are still few instruments that suitably measure these constructs in neurodivergent individuals. The current research focuses on examining measures of self-regulation in neurodivergent individuals. This study uses a narrative review and input from a stakeholder panel. The narrative review resulted in five questionnaires that measure self-regulation. These have been proposed to the panel. Given the content, psychometric qualities and user-friendliness, the BRIEF-A is identified as the most suitable instrument for measuring self-regulation in this target group. The study highlights the need for further development and validation of specific measurement tools that meet the needs of neurodivergent individuals. It remains essential to further evaluate the psychometric properties before these questionnaires can be used in clinical practice or intervention research in people with autism spectrum disorder.
