Résumé :	Abstract Both individuals with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and individuals with a psychotic disorder have difficulties integrating in the community. By means of a systematic review of the literature on community integration of young people with ASD or psychotic disorders, we aimed to unfold research foci and gaps within the ASD literature. As anticipated, research on community integration was more advanced in the field of psychosis compared to ASD. In this paper we highlight those areas of community integration that have received particularly little attention in ASD research, such as stigmatization, and we formulate research recommendations for ASD researchers based on the research conducted in the psychosis field. The outcomes of this systematic review demonstrate a need for more practical research focused on the daily lives of adolescents and adults with ASD.

Résumé :	Abstract Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show a lack of motivation to engage in spontaneous social encounters with other human beings. However, the basis for these diminished approach-related social behaviours is still unclear. This study investigated social motivation in ASD using an approach-avoidance task. In particular, we presented a group of ASD and a group of neurotypical adolescents with a series of emotionally positive, negative, and neutral visual stimuli, comprised of real photographs and cartoons – a stimulus with incentive salience for individuals with ASD. Participants were asked to either push or pull a joystick in response to an emotionally independent feature of the stimuli (colour frame). Following the main task, participants also rated the stimuli for affective valence and arousal. Results showed a dissociation in motivational responses towards positive stimuli for the ASD group only: faster avoidance from positive real photographs, but greater approach to positive cartoons, while no differences were found between emotionally negative or neutral stimuli. By contrast, no differences between the groups were found for the self-reported affective ratings. In light of the social motivation hypothesis, these atypical motivational responses suggest a deficit in assigning reward to socio-emotional stimuli in adolescents with ASD.

Résumé :	Abstract Children and adolescents with high functioning autism (HFA) display heterogeneity in social competence, which may be particularly evident during interactions with unfamiliar peers. The goal of this study was to examine predictors of social competence variability during an unfamiliar peer interaction. Thirty-nine participants with HFA and 39 age-, gender- and IQ-matched comparison participants were observed during dyadic laboratory interactions and detailed behavioral coding revealed three social competence dimensions: social initiative, social reciprocity, and social self-monitoring. Participants with HFA displayed higher social initiative but lower reciprocity than comparison participants. For participants with HFA, theory of mind was positively associated with observed initiative. For COM participants, social anxiety was negatively associated with reciprocity. However, for HFA participants, there was a quadratic relation between parent-reported social anxiety and observed reciprocity, demonstrating that low and high levels of anxiety were associated with low reciprocity. Results demonstrated the utility of our behavioral coding scheme as a valid assessment of social competence for children and adolescents with and without HFA. The curvilinear association between social anxiety and reciprocity highlights the importance of examining nonlinear relations in individuals with HFA, and emphasizes that discrete profiles of social anxiety in individuals with HFA may necessitate different treatment options.

Résumé :	AbstractPurpose The purpose of the present study was to examine the prevalence and predictors of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use as well as parental perceptions of CAM efficacy in a large, geographically diverse sample of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Methodology Data were obtained from a web-based survey administered to parents of children with ASD at four sites participating in the Mental Health Research Network (MHRN). The web survey obtained information about services and treatments received by children with ASD as well as the caregivers’ experiences with having a child with ASD. Results Approximately 88% of the sample had either used CAM in the past or had recently used some type of CAM. The following characteristics were associated with CAM use: greater parental education, younger child age, a mix of regular and special classroom settings and prescription drug use in the past three months. Conclusions The use of CAM was very prevalent in this large, geographically diverse sample of children with ASD. It is critical that providers be prepared to discuss the advantages and potential side effects with families to help them make well-informed health care decisions and prevent possible CAM-drug interactions.

Résumé :	Abstract This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effect of treatment intensity (high intensity vs. lower intensity) on the feasibility and efficacy of a comprehensive psychosocial treatment for 47 high-functioning children, ages 7–12 years with ASD (HFASD). 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.

Résumé :	Abstract Imitative behavior is known to be affected in Autism Spectrum Conditions. This issue has been addressed with a wide range of tasks and from many different perspectives. Here we use a version of Hamilton, Brindley, and Frith's (2007) bar-task in a sample of individuals with ASC and matched controls, to assess spontaneous imitation of goal-oriented actions. Contrary to previous studies which relied on ambiguous instructions to explore the spontaneous tendency to copy inefficient action patterns (Jiménez, Lorda, & Méndez, 2014), we used explicit instructions centered on the material outcome, in order to reduce the social motivation to overimitate. Consistently with previous findings, results showed that individuals with ASC and their matched counterparts were equally guided by action planning, but that the former exhibit a smaller tendency to mimic the less functional actions displayed by the model. These results are discussed as showing that these mimicry deficits cannot be accounted exclusively in terms of STORM (i.e., Social, Top-down Response Modulation) effects.

Résumé :	AbstractPurpose The current study examined self-esteem, social support, and life satisfaction in Chinese parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and observed the mediation effects of social support on the relationship between self-esteem and life satisfaction. Methods We compared 118 Chinese parents of children with ASD to 122 demographic-matched parents of typically developing children on measures of self-esteem, social support, and life satisfaction using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (SES), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), respectively. Results Parents of children with ASD scored significantly lower on self-esteem, social support, and life satisfaction than the controls (ps < 0.01), and social support partly mediated the relationship between self-esteem and life satisfaction in both groups. Hierarchical regressions indicated that after controlling for demographic variables, social support and self-esteem were significant predictors of life satisfaction in both groups but explained more variance in life satisfaction for the parents of children with ASD. Conclusions Social support and self-esteem play a more important role in life satisfaction for parents of children with ASD than those of typically developing children. Life satisfaction is positively related to higher household income, higher self-esteem, and stronger social support for parents. Self-esteem is likely to be associated with greater life satisfaction by means of greater social support. Future research and interventions should focus on fostering a more positive climate of social support for ASD families in China.

Résumé :	Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterized by socio-communicative impairments, and limited attention to other people's faces is thought to be an important underlying mechanism. Here, non-invasive eye-tracking technology was used to quantify the amount of time spent looking at another person's face during face-to-face communication in children with ASD (n = 13, age 6 years) and age and IQ-matched neurotypical children (n = 27, 6 years). We found that in one context of high ecological relevance – listening to an adult telling a children's story – children with ASD showed a markedly reduced tendency to look at the adult's face. In interactions between typical children and the adult, the amount of gaze to the other's face aligned between the two individuals. No such relation was found when the ASD group interacted with the adult. Despite these differences in the storytelling context, we also observed that social looking atypicalities did not generalize to another and more structured context, implying that social looking cannot not be considered fundamentally disrupted in children with ASD.

Résumé :	Abstract Population-based data on the magnitude and determinants of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) recurrence risk in families with an index case are rare. We examined whether short birth gaps and other birth spacing factors increase the risk of recurrence, using a population-based cohort study in Israel. We examined records of younger siblings of index cases (children diagnosed with ASD), and estimated recurrence risk and its determinants. Overall, 5.25% (261/4976) of younger siblings were diagnosed with ASD. Younger siblings with birth gaps less than two years of their index case had significantly higher risk compared to the rest (odds ratio = 1.66, 95% CI 1.25–2.22). The association remained significant in models adjusted for sex of the index cases and their younger siblings, ethnicity, parental ages and birth order (odds ratio = 1.43, CI 1.03–1.96). This finding suggests that short birth gaps from the index case increase the risk of ASD among younger siblings.

Résumé :	Abstract A visual paired comparison eye-tracking paradigm was used to measure preferences for socially relevant faces and subsequent objects in a 5-month-old low- and high-risk group for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In a first condition the mother's face was presented next to a stranger's face, in the second condition two stranger's faces were presented with direct versus averted gaze. Afterwards two objects were presented at the same places where previously the faces appeared. Both groups showed a similar preference for their mother's face over a stranger's face, while only the low-risk group tended to show a preference for the face with direct gaze over the face with averted gaze. No difference between groups was found for looking at the objects. These findings show that differences in social attention between both groups are subtle and depend on the manipulations used.

Résumé :	Abstract Employee turnover has deleterious effects on clinical services such that it hinders service quality, damages the therapeutic relationship, and compromises company infrastructure. However, little is known about predictors of turnover for behavior technicians (BTs) who implement behavioral interventions with individuals with autism. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify factors that serve as predictors of intention to turnover and provide a bedrock for direct assessment of strategies to reduce turnover among BTs. A total of 96 BTs from 19 different agencies in Southern California completed the entire online survey. We found that level of satisfaction with training, supervision, and pay (not their actual hourly pay), along with satisfaction with different aspects of the job (e.g., opportunities for advancement, praise for doing a good job) predicted BTs’ intent of turnover. We discussed the potential implications of our findings for researchers interested in examining methods to minimize turnover and increase continuity of behavioral care for individuals with autism spectrum disorders.

Résumé :	Abstract This study compared speech samples of 29 boys aged 6–13 with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder (HFASD) to those of 29 typically developing (TD) boys matched on age and ethnicity. Ten listeners blind to speakers’ diagnoses rated speech samples for nasality and reported their perceptions of the speaker on a 6-point Likert-type scale. Results indicated significantly greater listener-perceived nasality in the HFASD than the TD group. Listeners rated the HFASD group significantly higher than the TD group on negative socially relevant adjectives, a finding which was mediated by nasality. In addition, compared to TD speakers, speakers with HFASD were rated lower on dominance and perceived age, as well as higher on perceived disability.

Résumé :	Abstract Decoding and comprehension skills in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) were analysed in children native speakers of a language (Italian) with a highly regular orthography. Children with ASD were compared to children with matched intellectual functioning: a subgroup of children with ASD and borderline intellectual functioning (BIF) was compared to a subgroup of children with BIF but no signs of ASD; a subgroup of children with ASD and cognitive functioning within normal limits was compared to a group of typically developing children. Children with ASD (whether with or without BIF) showed essentially spared decoding skills in text as well as word and pseudo-word reading; this was at variance with children with BIF who, as a group, showed overall deficient decoding skills, despite considerable individual differences. By contrast, children with ASD (once again, irrespective of the presence of BIF) showed a selective impairment in reading comprehension, just like children with BIF but unlike the typically developing ones. Therefore, results are generally consistent with a profile of hyperlexia for children with ASD learning a regular orthography, as previously reported for other languages. Notably, this pattern was present irrespective of the degree of cognitive impairment, and clearly distinguished these children from those with borderline intellectual functioning but not signs of autism.

Résumé :	Abstract Autism and schizophrenia are severe neurodevelopmental disorders. Recent findings from several studies suggest that these disorders share some common features at the biological, psychosocial and cognitive level. We have chosen to focus on a specific subgroup of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), individuals with high functioning autism (HFA), owing notably to the specific difficulties associated with differential diagnosis between individuals with autism and schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSD) in the case of normal intelligence. In particular, we sought to investigate the extent to which neuropsychological and neurocognitive components could be specific in diagnosed participants with HFA who later developed SSD symptoms. We assessed a group of participants with HFA diagnosis and a group of participants who had first received an HFA diagnostic then were diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorder during late adolescence. Results show that interference management is the most likely variable to discriminate the two groups. The findings are discussed in terms of similarities or discrepancies between ASD or SSD-like processes and clinical implications.

Findings include themes related to marriage and divorce rates, relationship satisfaction and conflict, and other significant variables. Parents and service providers of individuals with ASD will benefit from knowing that strategies such as developing common goals, increasing partner respect, securing social support, reducing stress, and instilling hope are all factors which support the development and maintenance of positive couple and co-parenting relationships.
