As early identification of autism improves, there is a critical need for interventions to support the development of social communication skills in toddlers. Caregiver coaching and parental involvement is crucial for improving outcomes and providing children with adequate hours of planned active engagement. This pilot study assessed a 4-week…

Amelia Yanchik; Peter Vietze; Leah Esther Lax – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2024
The literature has yet to review the differential effects of Natural Environment Teaching (NET) and Discrete Trial Teaching (DTT) on adaptive skills. A sample of 142 children diagnosed with ASD between the ages of 16 and 35 months received either DTT, NET, or both interventions (NET+ DTT). The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (BSID)…

Joshua Anbar; Nicole Matthews; Stephen James; Afzal Ariff; Karen Pierce; Christopher J. Smith – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Few studies have examined differences in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) phenotype between children from multiplex and simplex families at the time of diagnosis. The present study used an age- and gender-matched, community-based sample (n = 105) from the southwestern United States to examine differences in ASD symptom severity, cognitive…

Sandra Hubert; Lena Nusser; Susanne Kuger – European Early Childhood Education Research Journal, 2024
Early childhood education and care (ECEC) has been found to be beneficial for the development of children below three years. However, many children do not attend ECEC facilities. Frequently, structural family characteristics (SFC), such as migration background, educational attainment and income, are used to explain differing probabilities of…

Sarah R. Edmunds; Rachel M. Hantman; Paul J. Yoder; Wendy L. Stone – Journal of Early Intervention, 2024
Younger siblings of autistic children are at a high likelihood (HL) of autism, language, and/or cognitive delays. Vocal complexity, a continuous measure of the developmental maturity of vocal communication, is facilitated by parent-child interaction and predicts language outcomes. This study examined whether parents' intervention fidelity to…

Use of telehealth assessments for toddlers at increased likelihood of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) began prior to the global COVID-19 pandemic; however, the value of telehealth assessments as an alternative to in-person assessment (IPA) became clearer during the pandemic. The Naturalistic Observation Diagnosis Assessment (NODA™), previously…

Adriano Villar-Aldonza; María-Jesús Mancebón; José-María Gómez- Sancho – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2024
This study investigates the reasons behind the decision to send children aged under three to ECEC (Early Childhood Education and Care) and the causes that may explain why some families send their child to ECEC once they reach the age of two while others decide to do so at an earlier age. To answer the first question posed a probit model is used,…

Elise de Bree; Karin Wiefferink; Ellen Gerrits – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Early detection of language delays is essential, as language is key for academic outcomes, well-being, and societal participation. Previous studies have focused on undetected delays in young children. Much less is known about referrals at older ages. In this study, we aimed to (a) establish how many children are referred at toddler age…

Cooper, Maria; Siu, Carrey Tik-Sze; McMullen, Mary Benson; Rockel, Jean; Powell, Sacha – Global Education Review, 2022
Infant and toddler pedagogy has flourished as a specialized area of practice in early childhood care and education settings, yet it remains an under-researched area. There is also limited empirical research internationally that explores cultural meanings of meaningful provision for this young age group. This ethnographic study explored pedagogies…

Chen, Feiyan – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
Early development of emotion regulation plays a vital role in children's school readiness and later academic success. Most studies on toddlers' emotion regulation are laboratory-based and correlational research. Little attention has been paid to their development of emotion regulation in daily parent-toddler interactions in naturalistic contexts.…

Infant vocalizations are early-emerging communicative markers shown to be atypical in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but few longitudinal, prospective studies exist. In this study, 23,850 infant vocalizations from infants at low (LR)- and high (HR)-risk for ASD (HR-ASD = 23, female = 3; HR-Neg = 35, female = 13; LR = 32, female = 10; 80% White;…

The Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers, Revised with Follow-up was validated on a population sample in Reykjavik, Iceland. The participants (N = 1585) were screened in well-child care at age 30 months and followed up for at least 2 years to identify autism cases. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were…

Bichay-Awadalla, Krystal; Bulotsky-Shearer, Rebecca J. – Early Education and Development, 2022
Research Findings: The Classroom Assessment Scoring System Toddler (CLASS-T) is one of the most commonly used measures to assess the quality of teacher-child interactions in toddler classrooms. Despite widespread use of the CLASS-T, few studies have examined the factor structure of the CLASS-T for use in Early Head Start (EHS) and subsidized child…
