Autism Symptoms, Executive Functioning and Academic Progress in Higher Education Students / Renee R. DIJKHUIS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-4 (April 2020)
[article]
Titre : Autism Symptoms, Executive Functioning and Academic Progress in Higher Education Students Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Renee R. DIJKHUIS, Auteur ; Leo DE SONNEVILLE, Auteur ; Tim ZIERMANS, Auteur ; Wouter STAAL, Auteur ; Hanna SWAAB, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1353-1363 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Executive functioning Higher education Young adults Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many students with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) attending higher education drop out prematurely. The predictive value of self-reported daily executive functioning (EF) and (cognitive) performance-based EF (mental flexibility and working memory) for academic progress was evaluated in 54 young adults with ASD (Mage = 22.5, SD = 2.4, 72% male). Regression analyses showed that autism symptom severity explained 12% of variance in academic progress, which was raised to 36% by adding self-reported daily EF, and to 25% by adding performance-based EF. It is suggested that EF is a candidate marker for academic progress in higher education students with ASD and a candidate target for early intervention.

Titre : Testing the Extreme Male Brain Theory of Autism Spectrum Disorder in a Familial Design Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ingeborg HAUTH, Auteur ; Yvette G. E. DE BRUIJN, Auteur ; Wouter STAAL, Auteur ; Jan K. BUITELAAR, Auteur ; Nanda N. ROMMELSE, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : p.491-500 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder extreme male brain theory testosterone 2D:4D finger length siblings parents empathizing systemizing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) may be an extreme manifestation of some male-typical traits in both neuroanatomy and cognition. Using the ratio of the second to fourth digit (2D:4D) and digit length as biomarkers of (pre- and postnatal) testosterone levels, examined was whether hypermasculinized digit ratios and/or lengths were familial traits in ASD and investigated their relation to sexually dimorphic cognitive abilities. 2D:4D ratios and digit lengths of 216 children with ASD, 202 unaffected siblings, and 360 parents were compared with those of 174 control children and their 146 parents. Generalized Estimation Equations, Generalized Linear Models, and Linear Mixed Models were used to investigate parent–offspring relationships and group differences. In ASD probands and their relatives alike, digit length relative to overall height was significantly increased in comparison to controls. No significant group differences were found between affected and unaffected subjects, or between males and females. Additionally, 2D:4D ratios increased with age. No (consistent) associations were found between 2D:4D ratio or digit lengths and systemizing and empathizing skills. The findings emphasize the role of familially based elevated pre- and postnatal testosterone levels in the liability for ASD, but challenge the use of 2D:4D ratio as a proxy of prenatal testosterone exposure solely. Given that many genes influence digit length, the exact mechanisms underlying a familial predisposition toward increased digit length in ASD are as yet unknown and needs to be explored in future studies.
