Recent decades have been marked by a wave drug treatment research in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This work has resulted in improved ability to treat commonly occurring behavioral challenges associated with ASD including most prominently irritability marked by aggression, self-injurious behavior, and severe tantrums. While treatment of…

Leaf, Justin B.; Cihon, Joseph H.; Ferguson, Julia L.; Milne, Christine M.; Leaf, Ronald; McEachin, John – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
There are three branches of science of behavior analysis [i.e., experimental analysis of behavior, behavior analysis, and applied behavior analysis (ABA)]. ABA can be defined as a systematic approach to understanding behavior of social interest. For the past 40 plus years, researchers have evaluated ABA and ABA based procedures (e.g., behavioral…

Garrick, Alice; Lee, Marie L.; Scarffe, Carrington; Attwood, Tony; Furley, Kirsten; Bellgrove, Mark A.; Johnson, Beth P. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Parents of children with ASD who had attended an Australian emergency department (ED; n = 421) completed a questionnaire relating to their experiences in the ED, including (1) child's reason for presentation and existing comorbidities, (2) quality of care during the visit (3) child's behaviour during visit, e.g. sensory responses to the ED…

Harriman, Emma; Oyefeso, Adenekan – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2022
Purpose: The concept of Quality of Life (QoL) for people with neurodevelopmental disorders primarily focuses on deinstitutionalisation and community inclusion. This population, however, often presents with comorbid diagnoses and is sectioned to treatment facilities under the Mental Health Act. The aim of this paper is to review the existing…

Failla, Michelle D.; Schwartz, Kyle L.; Chaganti, Shikha; Cutting, Laurie E.; Landman, Bennett A.; Cascio, Carissa J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder experience a significant number of co-occurring medical conditions, yet little is known about these conditions beyond prevalence. Using large-scale de-identified medical records, we can use a novel phecode-based tool to characterize co-occurring conditions in autism spectrum disorder. We hypothesized that…

Mayes, Susan D.; Calhoun, Susan L.; Baweja, Raman; Waschbusch, Daniel A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
No study has analyzed the relative occurrence of a broad range of symptoms reported by mothers of children with autism, ADHD-Combined, and ADHD-Inattentive and typical controls. Mothers rated 1436 children with autism, 1056 with ADHD without autism, and 186 controls, 2-17 years, on 41 internalizing, externalizing, neurodevelopmental, and somatic…

Williams, Vivian C. – Journal of the American Academy of Special Education Professionals, 2021
Social stories are effective interventions that can be used to manage negative behaviors and develop social skills. However, contradictory results are suggested within the research because of variability in designing social stories, intervention phases, target behaviors, and treatment protocol. Social story interventions may reduce negative…

Avlund, Sara Højslev; Thomsen, Per Hove; Schendel, Diana; Jørgensen, Meta; Clausen, Loa – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
The present study aimed to explore clinical trends in the period 2000-2010, along with discriminating clinical factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in young children suspected of ASD. The following trends were observed: (1) a rise in referrals including an increase in referrals among language-abled children, (2) an increase in children…

Whitehead, Patrick – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
The author argues for a functionalist understanding of autism. Instead of explaining autism as an inborn or otherwise neurological deficit, autism may be understood as a functional disturbance: the impairment of the abstract attitude. The abstract attitude is a concept developed by German neuropsychiatrist Kurt Goldstein (1987-1965) to describe…

Christopher, Kourtney; Bishop, Somer; Carpenter, Laura Arnstein; Warren, Zachary; Kanne, Stephen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Studies have shown that Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) screening and diagnostic instruments may be affected by the presence of emotional and behavior problems (EBPs). This study assessed the impact of EBPs on the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers, Revised with Follow-up (M-CHAT-R/F). Participants included 290 children, 18-48 months of age,…

Cooper, Kate; Russell, Ailsa; Calley, Steph; Chen, Huilin; Kramer, Jaxon; Verplanken, Bas – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Repetitive and restricted behaviours are a core feature of autism, and cognition in autistic individuals may also be repetitive and restricted. We aimed to investigate the relationship between repetitive behaviours and repetitive thinking. We predicted that autistic people would experience more repetitive, perseverative, visual and negative…

Mayes, Susan D.; Baweja, Raman; Waschbusch, Daniel A.; Calhoun, Susan L. – Journal of Mental Health Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2022
Introduction: Findings regarding the relationship between IQ and comorbidity in autism and ADHD are inconsistent. Methods: Mothers rated 1,436 children with autism and 1,056 with ADHD without autism (IQs 9-149, ages 2-17) on the Pediatric Behavior Scale. Results: Children with IQs < 70 (vs. [greater than or equal to] 70) had less oppositional…

Skaar, Nicole R.; Etscheidt, Susan Larson; Kraayenbrink, Andrew – Exceptionality, 2021
The provision of school-based mental health services (SBMHS) to students with disabilities is inadequate and insufficient. We propose that this failure to provide SBMHS to students with disabilities is due to (a) mental health services not consistently recognized as a related service under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA),…

Many neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) share common learning and behavioural impairments, as well as features such as dysregulation of the oxytocin hormone. Here, we examined DNA methylation (DNAm) in the 1st intron of the oxytocin receptor gene, "OXTR," in patients with autism spectrum (ASD), attention deficit and hyperactivity (ADHD)…
