Abstract

Neurotypicality is a highly prevalent but poorly understood condition characterised by linear thinking, form-filling behaviours, inconsistent empathy distribution, and high susceptibility to bureaucratic logic. This study presents the first formal investigation into the leading cause of being born neurotypical. Findings reveal a strong hereditary component, typically involving the unplanned reproductive activities of two neurotypical adults engaging in behaviour without fully understanding the potential societal impact.

Bureaucratic systems love numbers the way magpies love shiny things. This article presents the Court-Eve Activation Effect (CEAE): a reliable surge in administrative competence precisely one sleep before a final hearing. We also formalise the Funding-Evidence Treadmill (FET): when resolution requires government funding, action is deferred pending 'more evidence'—which means more incidents and escalated harm—until the night before court, when the evidence abruptly becomes 'compelling.'

Productivity, Pandemics and the 'Care Economy': How Disabled People Became the Scapegoats for a Global Slowdown

Commentators are increasingly blaming Australia's productivity slump on the NDIS, autistic children's therapies, and the 'care economy'. This paper commits the radical act of reading actual productivity data. We show Australia's productivity slowdown predates the NDIS by a decade and mirrors a global slowdown. COVID-19 produced a one-off productivity shock. We conclude that blaming autistic kids' OT sessions for a decades-long global productivity slowdown is methodologically unsound and ethically grotesque.

The Administrative Danger Response: A Systems-Level Model

A satirical but clinically observable model describing how Australian systems: (1) deny complexity, (2) demand simplistic fixes, (3) moralise biology as laziness, (4) blame disabled people for macroeconomic events, and (5) generate revenue streams from the resulting distress. Findings suggest ADR is self-sustaining and resistant to evidence, particularly when the evidence contains 'trigger words' such as metabolism, inflammation, disability, environment, or accountability.

Fear of the Machine

Axel Andersen AI Assisted3 Oct 20269 pages

This paper examines why Australians are among the most frightened people on Earth about artificial intelligence. Australia ranked lowest of 47 countries in believing the benefits of AI outweigh the risks, and half of Australians use it regularly anyway. The Journal finds that AI performs well at the tasks most rewarded in neurotypical professional life: sounding confident, summarising the meeting and writing the email about the meeting. It does not check whether any of it is true. Checking, literal reading, pattern noticing and saying the thing are roles neurodivergent people have performed without pay or job titles. The Journal proposes the Task Reallocation Hypothesis: AI takes neurotypical jobs and creates neurodivergent roles.

Closing the Distance: Explainable AI for Diagnosing Neurotypicality in Disability Assessors

Axel Andersen10 July 202410 pages

This paper proposes a complex machine learning framework to diagnose high-risk neurotypicality in clinicians, bureaucrats, data scientists and 'innovation leaders' involved in algorithmic disability assessment. We hypothesise that the urge to algorithmically contain disabled people functions as a psychological distancing technology—allowing professionals to comply with policy without risking actual relationship. Our TabPFN-NeuroMix model outputs a Neurotypicality Proximity Avoidance Index (NPAI) with explainability via SHAP, repurposed as Shapley Ableism Partitioning.

Pollute the World, Deny the Damage, Cut the Supports

Axel Andersen AI Assisted12 Mar 20267 pages

This paper advances one of the most significant findings in Neurotypical Studies to date: the same society capable of profiting from environmental harm, denying its effects, and misreading distress as 'behaviour' will then present disabled people as the real budget problem. The pattern was never hidden—it was visible the entire time. The paper focuses on Super Autism: those hit first by environmental harm, speaking first through distress, behaviour, overload and physiological collapse, and listened to last. If a system helps create the conditions of harm, ignores the earliest signals, and then blames the harmed for the cost of surviving it—the problem is not the disabled person. The problem is the system.

The Label That Ate the Support System: How Institutions Claim to Support 'Severe Autism' While Demonstrating They Don't Know What They're Talking About

Axel Andersen20 May 202410 pages

Neurotypical institutions routinely claim to 'support severe autism' while demonstrating conceptual and empirical incoherence: the category is inconsistently defined, treated as a behavioural nuisance, and systematically under-represented in autism research. Using a reverse-pathology framework, this paper analyses the Label-Support Paradox: a system cannot credibly claim to support a population whose defining features it fails to describe, measure, include, or even admit it has excluded. Proposes 'Super Autism' as an alternative framing.
