Little is known about weight-related behaviors of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) during summer. Aims To compare weight-related behaviors of children with ASD during summer versus school months. Methods and procedures Caregivers of children (mean age 5.7 years, +1.8 years) with ASD participated in a within-person observational study and reported daily estimates of bed/wake times, daily food and beverage consumption, and screen time at home for 14 days during both school and summer months. Outcomes and results Caregivers reported their child (N = 14; 100 % ASD diagnosis, 71 % boys) engaged in an additional +42 min of daily screen time at home (95 % CI: 22.1, 62.5), an additional +11 min of screen time after 8:00PM (95 %CI: 4.4, 17.1), went to bed ?30 min later and woke up ?50 min later on summer days compared to school month days. Conclusions and implications Initial evidence suggests young children with ASD had higher amounts of daily screen time and later bed/wake time during summer compared to school. Further research in large diverse samples is warranted to help inform intervention design and delivery in this population.
