Brief Report: Adults with Mild Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD): Scores on the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) and Comorbid Psychopathology / Cees KETELAARS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 38-1 (January 2008)

MINDERAA, Auteur ; Catharina A. HARTMAN, Auteur ; Ernst HORWITZ, Auteur ; Johan BOS, Auteur ; Durk WIERSMA, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.176-180 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism-Spectrum-Quotient Adult Autism-Spectrum-Disorders PDD-NOS Comorbidity Personality-disorders Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : While knowledge about symptom presentation of adults with mild ASD, including comorbid psychopathology, is limited, referral of adults with suspected mild PDD is increasing. We report on pilot research investigating whether patients diagnosed with mild ASD (n = 15) and patients who were not diagnosed with ASD (n = 21) differed in terms of (a) AQ scores and (b) Axis I and II disorders, assessed by the SCAN and the IPDE. Additionally, AQ scores were compared with those from non-ASD patients referred to a general outpatient clinic (n = 369). The results showed very few differences between ASD patients and non-ASD patients. Self-report may not differentiate mild ASD patients from non-ASD patients and Axis I and II disorders seem equally prevalent among these two groups.

Diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorders in Adults: the Use of Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) Module 4 / Jojanneke A. BASTIAANSEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 41-9 (September 2011)

ADOS module 4 proves to be a reliable instrument with good predictive value. It can adequately discriminate ASD from psychopathy and typical development, but is less specific with respect to schizophrenia due to behavioral overlap between autistic and negative symptoms. However, these groups differ on some core items and explorative analyses indicate that a revision of the algorithm in line with Gotham et al. (J Autism Dev Disord 37: 613–627, 2007) could be beneficial for discriminating ASD from schizophrenia.

Structural equation analysis of a hypothesised symptom model in the autism spectrum / Natasja D.J. VAN LANG in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-1 (January 2006)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 47-1 (January 2006) . - p.37–44 Titre : Structural equation analysis of a hypothesised symptom model in the autism spectrum Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Natasja D.J. VAN LANG, Auteur ; Anne BOOMSMA, Auteur ; Sjoerd SYTEMA, Auteur ; Annelies A. DE BILDT, Auteur ; Dirk W. KRAIJER, Auteur ; Cees KETELAARS, Auteur ; Ruud B. MINDERAA, Auteur Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : p.37–44 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism-spectrum-disorder symptom-structure structural-equation-modelling Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Several studies showed a different symptom structure underlying the spectrum of autistic-like disorders from the behaviour triad as mentioned in the DSM-IV. In the present study, a hypothesised symptom model for autism was constructed, based on earlier explorative findings, and was put to a confirmatory test. Method: Items from the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) were used to examine the goodness of fit of the DSM-IV model, the hypothesised symptom model, and two additional models for autism. All models were tested in a group of 255 verbal and nonverbal individuals with minor to severe autistic symptomatology. Results: The DSM-IV model encountered estimation problems. Conversely, the hypothesised symptom model had no such problems and proved to have a better fit to the sample data than the two additional models for autism. However, some of the observed variables were weak indicators of the three latent factors in the model. Conclusions: The hypothesised symptom model appeared to be a plausible model in a group of individuals with a broad range of autistic behaviours and levels of functioning. Nevertheless, the stability of the model needs further examination in a larger group of individuals with disorders in the autism spectrum, and with varying degrees of intellectual functioning.
