Participants included 132 children with ASD and 81 with special educational needs (SEN) but no ASD, aged 10–14 years plus 82 typically developing (TD) children. Data were collected on GI symptoms, diet, cognitive abilities, and developmental histories. Nearly half (weighted rate 46.5 %) of children with ASD had at least one individual lifetime GI symptom compared with 21.8 % of TD children and 29.2 % of those with SEN. Children with ASD had more past and current GI symptoms than TD or SEN groups although fewer current symptoms were reported in all groups compared with the past. The ASD group had significantly increased past vomiting and diarrhoea compared with the TD group and more abdominal pain than the SEN group. The ASD group had more current constipation (when defined as bowel movement less than three times per week) and soiling than either the TD or SEN groups. No association was found between GI symptoms and intellectual ability, ASD severity, ASD regression or limited or faddy diet. Parents report more GI symptoms in children with ASD than children with either SEN or TD children but the frequency of reported symptoms is greater in the past than currently in all groups.

Regression, Developmental Trajectory and Associated Problems in Disorders in the Autism Spectrum: The SNAP Study / Gillian BAIRD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 38-10 (November 2008)

Language regression was reported in 30% with narrowly defined autism, 8% with broader ASD and less than 3% with developmental problems without ASD. A smaller group of children were identified who underwent a less clear setback. Regression was associated with higher rates of autistic symptoms and a deviation in developmental trajectory. Regression was not associated with epilepsy or gastrointestinal problems.

Repetitive and stereotyped behaviours in pervasive developmental disorders / Iris CARCANI-RATHWELL in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-6 (June 2006)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 47-6 (June 2006) . - p.573–581 Titre : Repetitive and stereotyped behaviours in pervasive developmental disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Iris CARCANI-RATHWELL, Auteur ; Sophia RABE-HESKETH, Auteur ; Paramala J. SANTOSH, Auteur Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : p.573–581 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Repetitive-and-stereotyped-behaviours sensory-and-motor-stereotypies cognitive-rigidity pervasive-developmental-disorders autism mental-retardation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Repetitive and stereotyped behaviours are a heterogeneous group of behaviours present in many neuropsychiatric disorders. Despite their core significance in PDD, it is not clear whether there are distinct groups of these behaviours with different specificity to autism. Methods: A two-factor model of the repetitive behaviours, namely sensory/motor (lower-order) and cognitive rigidity (higher-order), was conceptualised. The model's goodness of fit to the data was examined in a clinic population of children with PDD, with and without mental retardation, and of those with only mental retardation (MR). Results: Subjects with PDD had higher rates of all repetitive behaviours compared to those with MR only. The existence of two independent 'lower-order' and 'higher-order' sub-groups of the repetitive behaviours was confirmed only in the MR group. The lower-order behaviours appear to be associated more with global developmental problems, whereas the higher-order behaviours were significantly associated with ruminations in the PDD group. Conclusions: This study suggests that there may be two distinct sub-groups of repetitive behaviours whereby the sensory and motor repetitive behaviours are generally associated with lower developmental age and less specific to the autistic syndrome whereas the 'higher-order' behaviours may be a more 'autism specific' feature. The co-occurrence of the lower- and higher-order behaviours in PDD might reflect the end result of diffuse altered neural networks in these disorders thus being a specific feature of PDD. There is a need for more systematic studies of these behaviours not only in autistic disorders but also in other neuropsychiatric disorders.

A video parent-training program for families of children with autism spectrum disorder in Albania / Yael G. DAI in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 56 (December 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 56 (December 2018) . - p.36-49 Titre : A video parent-training program for families of children with autism spectrum disorder in Albania Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yael G.

FEIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.36-49 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Parent training  Intervention  Distance learning Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Behavioral intervention with parent participation is effective in reducing symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but access to intervention is limited. The current study explored whether a video-enriched parent-training program would (a) be comprehensible and acceptable to parents in the Republic of Albania, (b) increase parental knowledge of behavioral strategies, and (c) increase parental self-efficacy. Methods Twenty-nine parents of children with ASD aged 18–70 months completed the Early Intervention Parenting Self-Efficacy Scale (EIPSES, Guimond et al., 2008) and a quiz to assess their knowledge of behavioral strategies. Parents in the Treatment Group then received access to a parent-training (PT) program on evidence-based teaching and behavior management techniques. The program was based on empirical research, but considered Albanian cultural norms and included topics Albanian parents requested. Parents in the Treatment Group rated the program using the Treatment Evaluation Inventory Short Form (TEI-SF; Kelley et al., 1989). Change in parents’ quiz scores and EIPSES ratings from baseline to post-treatment were compared by group. Results Parents rated this video training program as comprehensible and valuable. The program modestly increased aspects of self-efficacy as well as parents’ knowledge of effective teaching strategies. Conclusion Remote PT may be useful in low-resource settings to help parents develop techniques for teaching skills and forestalling problem behavior in children with ASD. Additional research, with a larger sample size, that observes the effect of the program on child behavior is warranted.
