Titre : Prevalence and Predictors of Psychotropic Use in Children with High-Functioning ASDs Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Christopher LOPATA, Auteur ; Jennifer A. TOOMEY, Auteur ; Jeffery D. FOX, Auteur ; Marcus L. THOMEER, Auteur ; Martin A. VOLKER, Auteur ; Gloria K. LEE, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : 6 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined (1) the prevalence of psychotropic medication use for a sample of children with high-functioning autism spectrum disorders (HFASDs), (2) the extent to which psychotropic agents were linked to targeted symptoms, and (3) predictors of psychotropic use. A total of 115 children, ages 6–13, with HFASDs who were enrolled in psychosocial treatment trials were included in this study. Parents completed extensive background and rating forms prior to treatment that included data on demographic characteristics, child health, child medication use, and child ASD-related symptoms. Results indicated that 33% ( ) of the sample was taking psychotropic medication with the most common being stimulants (25%; ), antidepressants (10%; ), and neuroleptics (6%; ). All children taking stimulants had target symptoms that were appropriate for stimulant medication, whereas 57% of those taking neuroleptics and 42% of those taking antidepressants did not have targeted symptoms consistent with the medication. Logistic regression for the major psychotropic drug categories indicated that lower IQ was a significant predictor of increased antidepressant and neuroleptic use. A higher level of ASD-related symptoms was related to the likelihood of stimulant use.

Internal consistency for adult and child faces subtests were .70 and .75, respectively. Immediate test-retest reliability in the total sample (N = 121) ranged from .78 to .84. Reliability for two subsamples for 5- (n = 21) and 12-week (n = 21) intervals ranged from .75 to .90 and from .43 to .68, respectively. DANVA-2 scores strongly converged with two measures of emotion recognition but were unrelated to parent ratings of social functioning and ASD symptoms. Significant correlations (small to medium) were found between DANVA-2 scores and child age, IQ, and language ability.

Internal consistency for the total sample was 0.92. For two subsamples, test–retest reliability was very good at the 6-week and good at the 9-month intervals. Child age, IQ, and language abilities were unrelated to the ASC score. The ASC total score was inversely and strongly related to parent ratings of ASD symptom severity. Significant positive correlations (moderate-to-high) were found between the ASC and prosocial skills scales and significant negative correlations (low-to-moderate) with problem behavior scales on a broad measure of child functioning. Implications and suggestions for future study are discussed.

Children in treatment (n = 22) received the manualized protocol over 12 weeks. Primary analyses indicated significantly better posttest performance for the treatment group (compared to controls) on 3 of the 4 measures of emotion decoding and encoding and these were maintained at 5-week follow-up. Analyses of secondary measures favored the treatment group for 1 of the 2 measures; specifically, ASD symptoms were significantly lower at posttest and follow-up.

RCT examining the effect of treatment intensity for a psychosocial treatment for high-functioning children with ASD / Christopher LOPATA in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 17 (September 2015)

All participants received the comprehensive 5-week summer treatment (summerMAX), with half receiving the previously validated high-intensity (HI) program (2:1 child-to-staff ratio) and half receiving a lower intensity (LI) version of the same program (4:1 child-to-staff ratio). Results of the primary analyses indicated significant improvements on non-literal language and emotion recognition (decoding) child testing and parent ratings of targeted and broad social skills, ASD-related symptoms, withdrawal, and behavioral symptoms for the overall group (HI and LI combined) and no significant difference between the conditions (HI vs. LI). Secondary staff clinician ratings corroborated parent ratings. No significant cross-condition differences were observed in fidelity of implementation or in parent, child, or staff clinician satisfaction ratings indicating no reduction in feasibility for the LI group. Overall, results suggested that similar positive outcomes can be achieved when the summerMAX program is administered at a lower intensity level.
