This paper explores the lived experience of incivility for neurodiverse students with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in Ireland. The higher education (HE) environment can be challenging for students with TBI. Incivility is common in higher education, and students with disabilities such as TBI are often marginalized within academia, making them more vulnerable to incivility. For this paper, data are drawn from the first author’s autoethnographic study, and is supplemented with semi-structured interviews from a sample of HE seven students also with TBI. Results revealed that participants’ experiences of incivility were common and were linked to the organizational culture of higher education. Our experiences point to a need for better responsiveness when interactions are frequently uncivil, despite there being policies that recognize diversity and equality. This is the first paper of its kind to explore this particular experience in Ireland and the purpose of this paper is to raise awareness of the challenges of neurodiverse students and how they are exacerbated by organizational and interpersonal incivility.

高等教育中的不文明行为：爱尔兰创伤性脑损伤神经多样化学生的包容性挑战

本文探讨了爱尔兰患有创伤性脑损伤 (TBI) 的神经多样化学生的不文明生活经历。对于患有 TBI 的学生来说，高等教育 (HE) 环境可能具有挑战性。不文明行为在高等教育中很常见，而 TBI 等残疾学生往往在学术界被边缘化，使他们更容易受到不文明行为的影响。对于本文，数据来自第一作者的自体人种学研究，并辅以来自 7 名患有 TBI 的 HE 7 学生样本的半结构化访谈。结果显示，参与者的不文明经历很普遍，并且与高等教育的组织文化有关。我们的经验表明，当交互经常不文明时，需要更好的响应能力，尽管有承认多样性和平等的政策。这是第一篇探讨爱尔兰这种特殊经历的同类论文，本文的目的是提高对神经多样化学生所面临挑战的认识，以及他们如何因组织和人际不文明行为而加剧。
