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,…

Ibrahim, Karim; Kalvin, Carla; Marsh, Carolyn L.; Anzano, Anthony; Gorynova, Lyudmila; Cimino, Kimberly; Sukhodolsky, Denis G. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are reported to have greater levels of anger rumination than typically developing children. This study examined anger rumination in children with ASD in comparison to children with disruptive behavior disorder without ASD. We also tested if anger rumination is associated with aggression and the core ASD…

Tyagi, Vernika; Juneja, Monica; Jain, Rahul – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Sleep problems were studied in both typically developing (TD) children and those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children. Factors associated with these problems were also studied in children with ASD. Seventy-three children with ASD and their age and sex matched TD controls in age group of 3-12 years were…

Tsai, Lee-Hou; Lin, Jeng-Wen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Here, we describe a case in which an original diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Asperger's syndrome was later adapted to social communication disorder, to meet the new guidelines. First, separate diagnostic labels of autism disorder, Asperger's disorder, and PDD-NOS have been replaced by one umbrella term…

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…

Sukhodolsky, Denis G.; Lecavalier, Luc; Johnson, Cynthia; Smith, Tristram; Swiezy, Naomi; Bearss, Karen; Kalvin, Carla B.; Scahill, Lawrence – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Anxiety is a common and impairing problem in children with autism spectrum disorder, but little is known about it in preschool children with autism spectrum disorder. This article reports on the characteristics of anxiety symptoms in young children with autism spectrum disorder using a parent-completed rating scale. One hundred and eighty children…

Blacher, Jan; Baker, Bruce L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Disruptive behavior disorders were assessed in 160 youth aged 13 years, with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD, n = 48), intellectual disability (ID, n = 28), or typical development (TD, n = 84). Mothers' reported collateral effects on their psychological adjustment were related to both youth disability status and clinical level behavior disorders.…

Knight, Victoria F.; Wright, John; DeFreese, Andrea – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Research on teaching STEM, especially in the areas of teaching coding for students with ASD, is lacking. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effects of using model-lead-test to teach an elementary-aged student with ASD and severe problem behavior the following dependent variables: (a) calibrating the robot; (b) drawing tracks for…

Richardson, Ben; Webber, Lynne S.; Lambrick, Frank – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2020
Background: Despite agreement that restrictive intervention (RI) should only be used as a last resort and for as long as required, little is known about long-term RI among individuals with a disability. This study examines long-term RI use. Method: From the Restrictive Intervention Data System dataset from Victoria, Australia, a cohort of 1,414…

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)…
