Sluggish cognitive tempo in autism, ADHD, and neurotypical child samples / Susan D. MAYES in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 79 (November 2020)
[article]
Titre : Sluggish cognitive tempo in autism, ADHD, and neurotypical child samples Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Susan D. MAYES, Auteur ; Susan L. CALHOUN, Auteur ; Daniel A. WASCHBUSCH, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101678 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Sluggish cognitive tempo Autism ADHD-Combined ADHD-Inattentive Typical children Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) recently experienced a resurgence of interest in children with ADHD, but only three small studies have investigated SCT in autism. Method Mothers rated 1,436 children with autism, 1,056 with ADHD without autism, and 186 typical controls, 2-17 years, on six SCT items from the Pediatric Behavior Scale. Results Almost half (49%) of children with autism scored 1.5 standard deviations or more above the typical SCT mean, as did 40% with ADHD-Inattentive and 31% with ADHD-Combined. The significantly greater prevalence in autism versus ADHD is largely explained by the high frequency of ADHD in autism and the increased risk of SCT when both disorders are present. However, the higher than normal prevalence of SCT in autism is not accounted for by co-occurring ADHD because SCT scores were higher than the norm in children with autism who did not have ADHD and SCT scores did not differ significantly between children with autism without ADHD and children with ADHD without autism. Conclusions Previous research indicated SCT was associated with ADHD-Inattentive type, but our findings show that SCT is even more prevalent in autism. SCT is most common when autism and ADHD co-occur. Because autism without ADHD is rare (whereas ADHD without autism is not), it is important to assess both SCT and ADHD in children referred for autism evaluations and rule-out autism in children referred for ADHD. SCT may be another neurocognitive problem shared by children with autism and children with ADHD in need of assessment and intervention.

Titre : Unusual fears in children with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Susan DICKERSON MAYES, Auteur ; Susan L. CALHOUN, Auteur ; Richa AGGARWAL, Auteur ; Courtney N. BAKER, Auteur ; Santoshkumar MATHAPATI, Auteur ; Sarah MOLITORIS, Auteur ; Rebecca D. MAYES, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : p.151-8 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Fears Phobias Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Unusual fears have long been recognized as common in autism, but little research exists. In our sample of 1033 children with autism, unusual fears were reported by parents of 421 (41%) of the children, representing 92 different fears. Many additional children had common childhood fears (e.g., dogs, bugs, and the dark). More than half of children with unusual fears had fears of mechanical things, heights, and/or weather. The most common unusual fear was fear of toilets, and the most common category was fear of mechanical things. Amazingly, many of the fears reported in our sample were described in children with autism 70 years ago by Kanner, including fear of vacuum cleaners, elevators, mechanical toys, swings, and the wind. Children with autism perceive, experience, and react to the world differently than children without autism. What is tolerable for most children (e.g., clouds in the sky, a change in activity or routine, sensory input, or a performance request) might be terrifying, distressing, or infuriating for a child with autism. It is critical to assess for unusual and common fears in children with autism because they are present in the majority of these children, they further impair functioning, and effective treatment is available.

This study determined that a cutoff score of 25.5 was most accurate in differentiating between high functioning autism or Asperger syndrome (HFA; n = 197) and ADHD (n = 74) in a sample of 1- to 16-year-olds with IQs of 80 or higher. Classification accuracy was 96% using clinician scores and 72% using parent scores. Children with LFA (n = 193) had significantly higher clinician and parent scores than children with HFA, and scores were negatively correlated with IQ. None of the typical children (n = 64) earned parent scores greater than 21.

Titre : Variables related to sleep problems in children with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Susan DICKERSON MAYES, Auteur ; Susan L. CALHOUN, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.931-941 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Sleep Child-characteristics Medication Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Our study of 477 children with autism (1–15 years, IQs 9–146) showed that parent reported sleep problems are found in most children with autism and are not significantly related to age, IQ, gender, race, parent occupation, neuropsychological functioning, and learning ability. However, sleep problems increased with severity of autistic symptoms and with severity of parent reported symptoms known to be associated with autism (i.e., oppositional behavior, aggression, explosiveness, attention deficit, impulsivity, hyperactivity, anxiety, depression, and mood variability). This suggests that sleep disturbance is part of the autism symptom complex and increases with increasing autism severity. The strongest predictors of sleep disturbance were parent ratings of autism severity, hyperactivity, mood variability, and aggression. The most frequent sleep problems were difficulty falling asleep and restlessness during sleep. Daytime sleepiness was not significantly correlated with sleeping less than normal, but was associated with sleeping more than normal. Children who were sleepier during the day were also sleepier at night. Medical practitioners and clinicians should be aware of the risk of sleep disturbance in children with autism and should routinely screen for this. Empirically proven interventions (e.g., behavior therapy and melatonin) are available to improve sleep in children with autism.

Full Scale IQ (FSIQ) and reading and math scores were similar to the norm. Profiles were consistent with previous WISC-III research, except that the new WISC-IV motor-free visual reasoning subtests (Matrix Reasoning and Picture Concepts) were the highest of the nonverbal subtests. The WISC-IV may be an improvement over the WISC-III for children with high-functioning autism because it captures their visual reasoning strength, while identifying their attention, graphomotor, and processing speed weaknesses. FSIQ was the best single predictor of academic achievement.
