Families of adolescents and adults with autism spectrum disorders in Taiwan: The role of social support and coping in family adaptation and maternal well-being / Ling-Yi LIN in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 5-1 (January-March 2011)
[article]
Titre : Families of adolescents and adults with autism spectrum disorders in Taiwan: The role of social support and coping in family adaptation and maternal well-being Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ling-Yi LIN, Auteur ; Gael I. ORSMOND, Auteur ; Wendy J. COSTER, Auteur ; Ellen S. COHN, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.144-156 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Social-support Coping Family-adaptation Maternal-well-being Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this study we examined differences in social support and coping between mothers of adolescents and adults with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Taiwan and the United States and to investigate the effects of social support and coping strategies on family adaptation and maternal well-being. Participants were 76 Taiwanese mothers who had at least one son or daughter with an ASD (10 years old and older), and a comparison group of 325 mothers in the United States matched on the age range of the child with an ASD. Mothers completed self-administered, written questionnaires and participated in an interview. Taiwanese mothers reported significantly greater use of problem-focused and emotion-focused coping strategies than did mothers in the United States. For Taiwanese families, greater use of problem-focused coping strategies was associated with lower levels of depressive symptoms and anxiety. Emotion-focused coping mediated the relationships between ethnicity/culture and several outcome measures: family adaptability, family cohesion, and maternal depressive symptoms. The higher levels of emotion-focused coping in Taiwanese mothers appeared to account for their lower levels of family adaptability and cohesion and higher levels of maternal depressive symptoms. The results from this cross-cultural study helped determine the role of social support and coping strategies in family adaptation and maternal well-being in families of individuals with an ASD in each culture. Implications for service delivery are discussed. En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.rasd.2010.03.004 Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=111

Titre : Friendship characteristics and activity patterns of adolescents with an autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melissa H. KUO, Auteur ; Gael I. ORSMOND, Auteur ; Ellen S. COHN, Auteur ; Wendy J. COSTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.481-500 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder friendships parent and adolescent reports activity patterns Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study compared perceptions of adolescents’ friendships between adolescents with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their parents, examined factors associated with friendship qualities, and investigated the adolescents’ reports on the activities they did with friends and how activity patterns differed by gender. Ninety-one adolescents with an ASD and their parents completed mail-based surveys during the summer months. Adolescents with an ASD identified more friends than did their parents, but they agreed on the friends’ characteristics. About half of the adolescents spent an average of 4 hours per day with friends during the summer months. Male adolescents with an ASD most frequently played video games with friends, whereas females most frequently had conversations with friends. The findings suggest that adolescents with an ASD and their parents identify different peers as the adolescent’s friends. The findings also reveal similarities and differences in friendships between adolescents with an ASD and typically developing adolescents.

Titre : Identifying School-Based Factors that Predict Employment Outcomes for Transition-Age Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jasin WONG, Auteur ; Wendy J. COSTER, Auteur ; Ellen S. COHN, Auteur ; Gael I. ORSMOND, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.60-74 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Daily functioning skills Nlts-2 Secondary analysis Structural equation modeling Transition Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is a growing need to provide appropriate services to help students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) transition to employment. Limited research has investigated what aspects of support should be prioritized when preparing youth with ASD for employment. By conducting structural equation modeling using a nationally-representative dataset on high school students receiving special education services (NLTS-2), this study examined the malleable predictors of employment during the transition and developed a model to examine the relationships between predictors and employment outcomes. The findings suggested two pathways for youth with ASD. For youth with higher daily functioning skills (DFS), academic performance mediated the relationship between parent participation and employment. For youth with lower DFS, school-based transition supports was the key mediator.

A total of 91 adolescents with ASD and their parents completed mail-based surveys. In all, 78% of the adolescents with ASD watched television (approximately 2 h/day), and 98% used computers (approximately 5 h/day) on any given day. They most frequently watched cartoons, played computer or video games that involved shooting, and visited websites that contained information on video games. Adolescents with ASD who watched television with parents reported more positive parent–child relationships. Adolescents with ASD who visited social networking websites or received emails from friends reported more positive friendships. The findings help us understand media-use habits of adolescents with ASD and suggest areas for future research.

Titre : “Success Doesn’t Happen in a Traditional Way”: Experiences of school personnel who provide employment preparation for youth with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jasin WONG, Auteur ; Ellen S. COHN, Auteur ; Wendy J. COSTER, Auteur ; Gael I. ORSMOND, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101631 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Employment Transition Qualitative research Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Secure employment is associated with positive self-esteem and higher quality of life. People with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), however, have poor employment outcomes. Typically, school personnel provide vocational supports for students with ASD. By learning from school personnel’s experiences, we can understand what works well and inform future service development. Aims We aimed to identify barriers and facilitators that school personnel consider when preparing youth with ASD for employment. Methods Twenty school personnel participated in semi-structured interviews. Procedures We conducted thematic analysis to understand how school personnel approached employment preparation with this population. This analysis was guided by an occupational therapy transactional perspective. Outcomes and Results We developed a conceptual model to highlight the transactions across contextual factors in employment preparation. School personnel viewed creating a meaningful life in the community and maintaining employment as inseparable. School personnel also highlighted the importance of empowering youth, supportive environments, and cooperative parents. Conclusions and Implications In preparing youth with ASD for employment, school personnel equally valued contextual factors, individual characteristics, and the dynamic relations between these elements. Future intervention and service development should be guided by a consideration of the transactions between individual and environment.
