LeFevre-Levy et al., Reference LeFevre-Levy, Melson-Silimon, Harmata, Hulett and Carter 2023) help bring neurodiversity at work to a wider audience, and we agree with much of what the focal article explores, particularly around removing the stigma associated with diagnoses under the neurodiversity umbrella. However, the authors miss some of the nuance around the historical roots of neurodiversity and how that could pose threats to neurodiversity research moving forward. Notably, a tension exists between the social model of disability, from which neurodiversity draws, and the medical model, which could result in harm to those considered neurodiverse (Haegele and Hodge, Reference Haegele and Hodge 2016). To resolve this tension, we propose an adaptation of the biopsychosocial (BPS) model (Engel, Reference Engel 1977) as a middle ground for scholars and organizations. We present this model as a person-centered approach to improving research and practice around neurodiversity.
