Adaptive Behavior in Toddlers Under Two with Autism Spectrum Disorders / Rhea PAUL in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-2 (February 2014)
[article]
Titre : Adaptive Behavior in Toddlers Under Two with Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Rhea PAUL, Auteur ; Rebecca LOOMIS, Auteur ; Katarzyna CHAWARSKA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.264-270 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Adaptive behavior Toddlers Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale was administered to 54 children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) before age 2, and a matching group of 18 toddlers with developmental delay (DD). The group with ASD was more impaired on all scales of the Vineland than DD peers. When 18 ASD/DD pairs very closely matched on age, verbal and nonverbal development were selected, differences were found only on Vineland Receptive Communication and Daily Living. Correlation analyses to explore connection of these areas of difference with cognition and autistic symptoms suggested that Vineland Daily Living scores were significantly correlated with nonverbal ability and with ADOS total algorithm scores. Vineland Receptive Communication scores correlated significantly only with ADOS total algorithms. The clinical implications of these findings are discussed.

Titre : The interplay of language on executive functions in children with ASD Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Maysa AKBAR, Auteur ; Rebecca LOOMIS, Auteur ; Rhea PAUL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.494-501 Mots-clés : Autism Executive functioning Language Working Memory Mediating effect Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disability characterized by deficits in social interaction and communication and by repetitive behaviors and restricted interests. Prior research has revealed executive function (EF) deficits in children with ASD. It has been suggested that these EF impairments are associated with language deficits intrinsic to ASD, specifically the inability to utilize inner speech to regulate non-routine behaviors (Russell, Jarrold, amp; Hood, 1999). Other studies, however, have found no link between language ability and EF (Joseph, McGrath, amp; Tager-Flusberg, 2005). The present study seeks to clarify the link between language and EF deficits in children with ASD in a cognitively heterogeneous sample. Four specific domains of EF (Working Memory, Organization, Shift, and Inhibition) were assessed in 62 children with ASD using direct measures (DKEFS, NEPSY, and WISC), and indirect parent/teacher report (BRIEF). Analysis by stepwise regressions showed measures of language skill, nonverbal cognition, and autistic symptom severity to be predictive of several domains of EF. Direct measure of Working Memory (WM) was predicted by structural and pragmatic language ability, direct measure of Organization (O) was predicted by nonverbal cognition, and direct measure of Shift (S) was predicted by nonverbal cognition and autistic symptom severity. Additionally, parent and teacher reports of WM were predicted by structural and pragmatic language skills, respectively. Results are interpreted to demonstrate a mediating effect of language on the WM component of EF when assessed directly or indirectly. Implications for theories linking language skill to EF in the ASD population are discussed, and the observed deficit is compared with findings on EF and language ability in the SLI population.
