Executive function challenges are commonly reported in the home setting for children with an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis (hereafter, autism), but little is known about these challenges in the school setting. A total of 337 youth (autism, N = 241 and typically developing, N = 96) were assessed using Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive…

Clendon, Sally; Paynter, Jessica; Walker, Sue; Bowen, Rachael; Westerveld, Marleen F. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2021
Purpose: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at increased risk of experiencing difficulties with the development of literacy, including the emergent literacy skills recognized to underpin conventional literacy success. Comprehensive assessment is essential. Characteristics of ASD can make assessment challenging, and this can be…

Kalvin, Carla B.; Jordan, Rebecca; Rowley, Sonia; Weis, Anna L.; Ibrahim, Karim; Sukhodolsky, Denis G. – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2023
Social adaptive functioning is notably compromised and may be further impaired by aggressive behavior in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study examined the association between aggressive behavior and social adaptive skills in children with ASD and the contribution of aggressive behavior to social adaptive skills in a combined…

We examined relationships between measures of adaptive behavior, cognitive ability, and autism symptom severity in 1458 preschool-aged children with autism from the Study to Explore Early Development. While publications commonly describe autistic children as "low-" or "high-functioning" based on cognitive ability, relying…

In the current study, we examined adaptive skills and trajectories over time in 257 individuals with Angelman syndrome (AS) using the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, 2nd Edition. Multilevel linear models were used to examine differences between molecular subtypes over time, from one year to 13 years of age, in the adaptive domains of…

Gravråkmo, Sissel; Olsen, Alexander; Lydersen, Stian; Ingul, Jo Magne; Henry, Lucy; Øie, Merete G. – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2023
Background: The purpose of this study was to explore the role of everyday executive functions in relation to intelligence and adaptive behaviour in children and adolescents with mild intellectual disability. Method: A group of children and adolescents, previously diagnosed with mild intellectual disability were assessed according to intelligence,…

H. Jones – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Autistic individuals experience higher rates of externalising and internalising symptoms that may vary with environmental factors. However, there is limited research on variation across settings that may highlight common factors with globally generalisable effects. Data were taken from two cohorts: a multinational European sample (n = 764; 453…

Moore, Heather L.; Couteur, Ann Le; Charman, Tony; Green, Jonathan; Parr, Jeremy R.; Grahame, Victoria – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Adaptive functioning of autistic children is traditionally measured through informant-report, often from parents. Behaviour varies across settings though, and context-specific reports should be considered. Limited and inconsistent results show low parent-education professional concordance, but no research has yet explored item level response…

Michaela Brown; Johnny Matson; Megan Callahan; Celeste Tevis – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2023
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by social communication and interaction deficits, as well as restricted and repetitive behaviors. Previous research has examined the role that social deficits play on the development of daily living skills in children with ASD. However, there is a lack of research on…

Richards, Melissa N.; Putnick, Diane L.; Bradley, Laura P.; Lang, Kyle M.; Little, Todd D.; Suwalsky, Joan T. D.; Bornstein, Marc H. – Applied Developmental Science, 2022
Play during childhood is essential to growth and learning. Little is known about whether categories of toys moderate play behaviors at different ages, or how children interact with toys that are simple, appropriate, or complex for their developmental level. Two hundred and forty-three children between the ages of 1 and 8 years, divided into four…

Ousley, Ciara L.; Raulston, Tracy J.; Gilhuber, Christina S. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2022
Delays in communication are commonly experienced by young children who are not meeting developmental milestones. Early naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions are efficacious, and parents can successfully embed these communication strategies into playtime routines, including when coaching is delivered via telepractice. Video feedback…

McClain, Maryellen Brunson; Schwartz, Sarah E.; Bera, Jac'lyn; Farmer, Ryan L.; Serang, Sarfaraz; Harris, Bryn; Golson, Megan E. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2023
Measurement of adaptive skills is important in the diagnosis, intervention planning, and progress monitoring of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Thus, ensuring accurate measurement, including measurement invariance, across children with and without IDD is critical. In this study, we evaluate the measurement…

Glover, Meredith; Liddle, Melissa; Fassler, Carrie; Duncan, Amie – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) without an intellectual disability (ID) have daily living skills (DLS) that fall below their chronological age and affect their ability to achieve successful adult outcomes, but little is known about their specific DLS challenges. Utilizing the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, 3rd Edition (VABS-3)…

Wickerd, Garry; Tremblay, Sarah – Psychology in the Schools, 2021
Adaptive behavior rating scales are widely used assessments that ask teachers and parents to rate how well students care for themselves, interact with others, and exhibit practical and academic skills. While adaptive rating scales have yielded reliable and valid results, it is unclear how the readability of the rating forms may impact the results,…

Ellen Wilkinson; Cristan Farmer; Evan Kleiman; Vanessa H. Bal – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
The commonly used Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (VABS-3) divides adaptive behavior into three domains comprising three subdomains. The validity of this three-factor structure has not been explored in autistic samples, which are often heterogeneous with respect to language and IQ. Furthermore, although there are two comparable forms,…
