Self-regulation and quality of life in high-functioning young adults with autism / Renee R. DIJKHUIS in Autism, 21-7 (October 2017)
[article]
Titre : Self-regulation and quality of life in high-functioning young adults with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Renee R. DIJKHUIS, Auteur ; Tim B. ZIERMANS, Auteur ; Sophie VAN RIJN, Auteur ; Wouter G. STAAL, Auteur ; Hanna SWAAB, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.896-906 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Autism is generally associated with poor functional outcome but little is known about predictors of quality of life, especially during early adulthood. This study was conducted to assess subjective quality of life during early adulthood in high-functioning autism spectrum disorder and its relation with self-regulating abilities. Individuals with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder who progressed into post-secondary higher education (N=75) were compared to a typical peer control group (N=28) based on behavioral self-report questionnaires. The results indicated that individuals with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder reported significantly lower subjective quality of life than typical controls (p?0.001, effect size (d)=1.84). In addition, individuals with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder reported more problems with emotion processing (p?0.05, effect size (d)=0.79) and daily executive functioning (p?0.001, effect size (d)=1.29) than controls. A higher level of executive functioning problems was related to lower quality of life in the high-functioning autism spectrum disorder group, but no significant relation between level of emotion processing and subjective quality of life became apparent in the regression analysis. Our findings show that even in high-functioning young adults with autism, executive functioning, emotion processing, and subjective quality of life are low compared to typically developing peers. Furthermore, these results emphasize the importance of targeting executive functioning problems in individuals with autism to improve subjective quality of life.
