Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum

Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term 'neurodiversity' was coined in the late 1990s by sociologist Judy Singer to describe the diversity of human brains and minds. It combines 'neuro-', from the Greek 'neuron' meaning 'nerve', and 'diversity', from the Latin 'diversitas', meaning 'variety'. The term has evolved to advocate for the acceptance and inclusion of neurological differences as a natural variation of human experience.
