The Economic Impact of Autism in Britain / Krister JARBRINK in Autism, 5-1 (March 2001)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 5-1 (March 2001) . - p.7-22 Titre : The Economic Impact of Autism in Britain Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Krister JARBRINK, Auteur ; Martin KNAPP, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.7-22 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Little is known about the economic impact of autism. This study estimated the economic consequences of autism in the United Kingdom, based on published evidence and on the reanalysis of data holdings at the Centre for the Economics of Mental Health (CEMH). With an assumed prevalence of 5 per 10,000, the annual societal cost for the UK was estimated to exceed £1 billion. The lifetime cost for a person with autism exceeded £2.4 million. The main costs were for living support and day activities. Family costs account for only 2.3 percent of the total cost, but a lack of relevant information limited our ability to estimate these costs. Minor improvements in life outcome for people with autism could substantially reduce costs over the lifetime.

Social and Language Skills in Adolescent Boys with Asperger Syndrome / Cyndie KONING in Autism, 5-1 (March 2001)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 5-1 (March 2001) . - p.23-36 Titre : Social and Language Skills in Adolescent Boys with Asperger Syndrome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Cyndie KONING, Auteur ; Joyce MAGILL-EVANS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.23-36 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Twenty-one adolescent boys with Asperger syndrome and 21 boys matched on age and an estimate of IQ were assessed using standardized measures of social perception (Child and Adolescent Social Perception Measure, CASP), social skills (parent, teacher, and student forms of the Social Skills Rating System, SSRS), number of close friends and frequency of contact (Child Behavior Checklist) and expressive and receptive language (Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals-Revised). There were significant differences between groups on CASP scores, SSRS scores, number of friends, frequency of contact and social competence. There was also a significant difference on receptive language. The clinically and statistically significant differences between the groups on the measures of social skills help us understand the nature of the social deficits in Asperger syndrome and suggest the need to focus on specific deficits. These findings are discussed in relation to diagnostic criteria and intervention.

Perceptions of School by Two Teenage Boys with Asperger Syndrome and their Mothers: A Qualitative Study / Suzanne CARRINGTON in Autism, 5-1 (March 2001)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 5-1 (March 2001) . - p.37-48 Titre : Perceptions of School by Two Teenage Boys with Asperger Syndrome and their Mothers: A Qualitative Study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Suzanne CARRINGTON, Auteur ; Lorraine GRAHAM, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.37-48 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This qualitative study aimed to develop an understanding of the challenges faced by teenage boys with Asperger syndrome and their mothers. A case study approach was used to collect data from two 13-year-old boys who have Asperger syndrome and their mothers in Queensland, Australia. Data were collected through the use of semi- structured interviews. The words of the boys and their mothers provide a valuable insight into the personal experiences and feelings of the participants. An inductive approach to data analysis identified four themes: (1) developmental differences; (2) problems associated with the general characteristics of Asperger syndrome (i.e. communication and social difficulties, restricted range of interests, a need for routine); (3) stress; and (4) ‘masquerading’. The first three themes relate strongly to the current literature, but the emergence of masquerading is of particular interest in developing a fuller understanding of the experiences of individuals with Asperger syndrome at school.

The NAS EarlyBird Programme: Partnership with Parents in Early Intervention / Jane SHIELDS in Autism, 5-1 (March 2001)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 5-1 (March 2001) . - p.49-56 Titre : The NAS EarlyBird Programme: Partnership with Parents in Early Intervention Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jane SHIELDS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.49-56 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Early intervention bridges the gap between early diagnosis and appropriate educational placement. The National Autistic Society has developed an autism-specific three-month parent package, the NAS EarlyBird Programme, that emphasizes partnership with parents. Six families participate in each three-month programme, which combines weekly group training sessions for parents with individualized home visits. During the programme parents learn to understand autism, to build social communication, and to analyse and use structure, so as to prevent inappropriate behaviours. The use of video and the group dynamic amongst families are important components of the programme. An efficacy study evaluated the pilot programme and further monitoring is in progress. Training courses in the licensed use of the NAS EarlyBird Programme are now available for teams of professionals with prior experience of autism. Strengths and weaknesses of the programme are discussed. This short-term, affordable package, with supporting evidence of efficacy, offers a model of early intervention that is very popular with parents.

A Deficit in Shifting Attention Present in High-Functioning Autism but not Asperger’s Disorder / Nicole J. RINEHART in Autism, 5-1 (March 2001)

TONGE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.67-80 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The aim of this study was to examine executive functioning, in particular, attentional set-shifting deficits in high-functioning autism (n = 12) and Asperger’s disorder (n = 12). A large or global digit composed of smaller or local digits was presented during each trial. The participants indicated the presence of 1s or 2s by pressing the appropriate button. These targets could appear globally or locally. Relative to IQ, sex and age matched controls, reaction time to global targets in individuals with autism was retarded when the previous target appeared locally. This deficiency in shifting from local to global processing, however, was not observed in individuals with Asperger’s disorder. The theoretical and neurobiological significance of this dissociation in executive functioning in these clinically related disorders was explored.

Non-Significance of Early Speech Delay in Children with Autism and Normal Intelligence and Implications for DSM-IV Asperger’s Disorder / Susan DICKERSON MAYES in Autism, 5-1 (March 2001)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 5-1 (March 2001) . - p.81-94 Titre : Non-Significance of Early Speech Delay in Children with Autism and Normal Intelligence and Implications for DSM-IV Asperger’s Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Susan DICKERSON MAYES, Auteur ; Susan L. CALHOUN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.81-94 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : According to the DSM-IV, children with Asperger’s disorder do not have significant cognitive or speech delays, whereas children with autistic disorder may or may not. In our study, children with normal intelligence who had clinical diagnoses of autism or Asperger syndrome were divided into two groups: those with and without a significant speech delay. The purpose was to determine if clinically meaningful differences existed between the two groups that would support absence of speech delay as a DSM-IV criterion for Asperger’s disorder. No significant differences were found between the 23 children with a speech delay and the 24 children without a speech delay on any of the 71 variables analyzed, including autistic symptoms and expressive language. Results suggest that early speech delay may be irrelevant to later functioning in children who have normal intelligence and clinical diagnoses of autism or Asperger syndrome and that speech delay as a DSM-IV distinction between Asperger’s disorder and autism may not be justified.
