Russell, Kaylin M.; Ingersoll, Brooke – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Parental self-efficacy, parents' beliefs in their ability to successfully parent their child, plays an important role in family outcomes when a child has autism spectrum disorder. It is important to consider therapeutic self-efficacy, one's feelings of self-efficacy regarding their implementation of an intervention, within parent-mediated…

Feldman, Jacob I.; Raj, Sweeya; Bowman, Sarah M.; Santapuram, Pooja; Golden, Alexandra J.; Daly, Claire; Dunham, Kacie; Suzman, Evan; Augustine, Ashley E.; Garla, Varsha; Muhumuza, Aine; Cascio, Carissa J.; Williams, Kathryn L.; Kirby, Anne V.; Keceli-Kaysili, Bahar; Woynaroski, Tiffany G. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Differences in communication development impact long-term outcomes of children with autism. Previous research has identified factors associated with communication in children with autism, but much of the variance in communication skill remains unexplained. It has been proposed that early differences in sensory responsiveness (i.e.,…

Harrop, Clare; Gulsrud, Amanda; Shih, Wendy; Hovsepyan, Lilit; Kasari, Connie – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2016
Restricted and repetitive behaviors are a core feature of autism spectrum disorder. This descriptive study documented the presence of restricted and repetitive behaviors in 85 toddlers with autism spectrum disorder as they interacted with their caregiver in a play interaction. For each child restricted and repetitive behavior, a caregiver…

Donkers, Franc C. L.; Carlson, Mike; Schipul, Sarah E.; Belger, Aysenil; Baranek, Grace T. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Atypical sensory response patterns are common in children with autism and developmental delay. Expanding on previous work, this observational electroencephalogram study assessed auditory event-related potentials and their associations with clinically evaluated sensory response patterns in children with autism spectrum disorder (n = 28),…

Stronach, Sheri; Wetherby, Amy M. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2014
This prospective study of the FIRST WORDS® Project examined restricted and repetitive behaviors in a sample of 55 toddlers at a mean age of 20 months who were later diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Restricted and repetitive behaviors were coded using the Repetitive Movement and Restricted Interest Scales in two video-recorded observation…

Elison, Jed T.; Wolff, Jason J.; Heimer, Debra C.; Paterson, Sarah J.; Gu, Hongbin; Hazlett, Heather C.; Styner, Martin; Gerig, Guido; Piven, Joseph – Developmental Science, 2013
Elucidating the neural basis of joint attention in infancy promises to yield important insights into the development of language and social cognition, and directly informs developmental models of autism. We describe a new method for evaluating responding to joint attention performance in infancy that highlights the 9- to 10-month period as a time…
