This post is on a topic that deviates somewhat from what this blog is typically based on.<br /> <br /> Myself and colleagues at Heriot-Watt University have just finished a research project on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurodiversity" target="_blank">neurodiversity</a> and the workplace, with the focus on people who work in the transport and travel industry.<br /> <br /> Neurodiversity, for the purpose of this research, relates to conditions such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, ADD/ADHD and Asperger syndrome.<br /> <br /> The research was commissioned by the <a href="http://www.tssa.org.uk/" target="_blank">TSSA</a> trade union.<br /> <br /> The report looks at three things in particular:<br /> <br /> 1) Knowledge of neurodiverse conditions.<br /> <br /> 2) Attitudes towards the term "neurodiversity".<br /> <br /> 3) Perceived level of support and perceived level of support for employees with a neurodiverse condition.<br /> <br /> If you would like to
