Resumen

Se reconoce el autismo como una variación del neurodesarrollo caracterizada por algún grado de dificultad en la comunicación e interacción social. La aparición del paradigma de la neurodiversidad ha motivado investigaciones que permiten una práctica más constructiva en oposición al paradigma patológico prevalente. Las tensiones entre paradigmas han abierto discusiones necesarias de examinar previo a iniciar procesos investigativos. Objetivo: Indagar en las tensiones éticas descritas en la literatura y las estrategias de prevención propuestas. Metodología: revisión integrativa de la literatura. Se utilizaron las palabras claves “ethical” AND “autism” AND “research” y sus combinaciones, seleccionando 14 artículos tras el cribado. Los hallazgos subrayan la importancia de marcos éticos que valoren la identidad autista, la participación comunitaria y enfoques de bienestar contextualizados Conclusión: Es crucial adoptar un enfoque inclusivo que valore las voces y perspectivas de las personas autistas en el proceso investigativo. La teoría crítica y el concepto de neurocosmopolitismo se proponen como herramientas para reconfigurar la investigación y garantizar prácticas inclusivas, respetuosas y centradas en la experiencia de las personas autistas
