For this purpose we followed 28 adolescents with ASD during their first year of specialized treatment. Results showed that better self-awareness at start of treatment was related with an increase in clinician-reported social functioning after 1 year of treatment. Additionally, an increase in self-awareness during treatment was related with a decrease of parent-reported problems in daily functioning. However, an increase in self-awareness was also related to an increase of self-reported daily and psychological problems. It is discussed that lowered self-awareness may result in an overestimation of personal real-world functioning and consequently may influence treatment course.

Pragmatic Inferences in High-Functioning Adults with Autism and Asperger Syndrome / Judith PIJNACKER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 39-4 (April 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 39-4 (April 2009) . - p.607-618 Titre : Pragmatic Inferences in High-Functioning Adults with Autism and Asperger Syndrome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Judith PIJNACKER, Auteur ; Jan K. BUITELAAR, Auteur ; Peter HAGOORT, Auteur ; Jan-Pieter TEUNISSE, Auteur ; Bart GEURTS, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.607-618 Note générale : Article Open Access Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic-disorder Asperger-syndrome Pragmatics Inferences Scalar-implicatures Language-understanding Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Although people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) often have severe problems with pragmatic aspects of language, little is known about their pragmatic reasoning. We carried out a behavioral study on high-functioning adults with autistic disorder (n = 11) and Asperger syndrome (n = 17) and matched controls (n = 28) to investigate whether they are capable of deriving scalar implicatures, which are generally considered to be pragmatic inferences. Participants were presented with underinformative sentences like “Some sparrows are birds”. This sentence is logically true, but pragmatically inappropriate if the scalar implicature “Not all sparrows are birds” is derived. The present findings indicate that the combined ASD group was just as likely as controls to derive scalar implicatures, yet there was a difference between participants with autistic disorder and Asperger syndrome, suggesting a potential differentiation between these disorders in pragmatic reasoning. Moreover, our results suggest that verbal intelligence is a constraint for task performance in autistic disorder but not in Asperger syndrome.

The Social Support Network of Adults with an Autism Spectrum Condition: An Exploration Using the Network in Action-Questionnaire / Rinske M. VAN DEN HEUVEL in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-5 (May 2023)

GEURTS, Auteur ; Jan-Pieter TEUNISSE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1974-1988 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Actively involving the network during treatment, as recommended in Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) guidelines, can be facilitated with the Network in Action-Questionnaire (NiA-Q), which identifies the current and potential sources of social support. The aims of this study were to (1) examine the factor structure of the NiA-Q and (2) to explore the self- and proxy-report on the social network. Before the start of treatment in a mental health institution, 193 adults with an ASC diagnosis and 84 proxies completed the NiA-Q. Factor analysis showed two factors: positive social support and interpersonal distress. Self- and proxy-report on the NiA-Q did not differ for most variables, except for social network wishes. The NiA-Q provides a basis for network involvement and strengthening.

Verbal fluency in children with autism spectrum disorders: Clustering and switching strategies / Sander BEGEER in Autism, 18-8 (November 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 18-8 (November 2014) . - p.1014-1018 Titre : Verbal fluency in children with autism spectrum disorders: Clustering and switching strategies Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sander BEGEER, Auteur ; Marlies WIERDA, Auteur ; Anke M. SCHEEREN, Auteur ; Jan-Pieter TEUNISSE, Auteur ; Hans M. KOOT, Auteur ; Hilde M. GEURTS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1014-1018 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  clustering  cognitive flexibility  fluency  switching Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study highlights differences in cognitive strategies in children and adolescents with and without autism spectrum disorders (n = 52) on a verbal fluency task (naming as many words as possible (e.g. animals) within 60 s). The ability to form clusters of words (e.g. farm animals like “cow–horse–goat”) or to switch between unrelated words (e.g. “snake” and “cat”) was analyzed using a coding method that more stringently differentiates between these strategies. Results indicated that children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders switched less frequently, but produced slightly larger clusters than the comparison group, resulting in equal numbers of total words produced. The currently used measures of cognitive flexibility suggest atypical, but possibly equally efficient, fluency styles used by individuals with autism spectrum disorders.
