Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 130 (February 2026) . - p.202779 Titre : Associations among autistic adults’ self-reported literacy ability, autism traits, and quality of life Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jaclyn M. DYNIA, Auteur ; Chandra A. LEBENHAGEN, Auteur ; Stephanie A. MALONE, Auteur ; Marleen WESTERVELD, Auteur ; Jessica PAYNTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.202779 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Literacy ability  Quality of life  Autism traits  Autistic adults Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Purpose We sought to investigate autistic adults’ perceptions of their literacy skills and to examine if an association exists between these perceptions, autism traits, and Quality of Life (QoL). Methods Participants were 163 autistic adults who completed measures of their literacy-related abilities, autism traits, and QoL. Results Seventy-five percent of participants (n = 163) reported favorable perceptions of their literacy ability. Participants' literacy ability was positively associated with four QoL domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. Conclusion This study offers important insights for autistic individuals, researchers, educators, and clinicians as they seek ways to co-identify responsive and effective early literacy support to improve life outcomes for autistic people.

Brief Report: Are Children with Autism Proficient Word Learners? / Tessa E. FRANKEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 40-2 (February 2010)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 40-2 (February 2010) . - p.255-259 Titre : Brief Report: Are Children with Autism Proficient Word Learners? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Tessa E. FRANKEN, Auteur ; Charlie LEWIS, Auteur ; Stephanie A. MALONE, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.255-259 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Word-learning Joint-attention Context Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many approaches to word learning argue for the importance of joint attention and other social-pragmatic abilities. This study explored word learning in children with autism (CWA), by examining it in ostensive and non-ostensive contexts, tested through both comprehension and elicited production. Novel nouns were taught to 17 CWA and 13 children with moderate learning difficulties (MLD) using an adapted version of Tomasello and Barton’s (Developmental Psychology, 30: 639–650, 1994) search paradigm. In elicited production for words learnt within an ostensive context, CWA performed at a significantly higher level than MLD children. This is contrary to prior findings and suggests that word learning abilities in CWA have been underestimated.

A Longitudinal Analysis of Mothers" Parenting Stress and Internalizing and Externalizing Behavior of Young Children on the Autism Spectrum / Vanessa HENG ; Madonna TUCKER ; Stephanie A. MALONE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 55-7 (July 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 55-7 (July 2025) . - p.2294-2306 Titre : A Longitudinal Analysis of Mothers" Parenting Stress and Internalizing and Externalizing Behavior of Young Children on the Autism Spectrum Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Vanessa HENG, Auteur ; Madonna TUCKER, Auteur ; Stephanie A. MALONE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2294-2306 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We investigated longitudinal relations between internalizing, externalizing, and total behaviors that challenge in young children on the autism spectrum and mothers" parenting stress. Participants included 93 mothers of children on the autism spectrum aged 27.89-65.84 months, who completed questionnaires on maternal parenting stress, and children s internalizing (anxiety), externalizing (disruptive), and total behaviors that challenge. Data were collected on early intervention program intake and approximately one year later. Cross-sectional findings indicated small to medium effect size associations between internalizing and externalizing behavior and parenting stress. However, cross-lagged structural equation models found that neither internalizing nor externalizing behavior predicted later parenting stress, nor the reverse. Significant stability effects were found for measures of child internalizing (anxiety), externalizing (disruptive), and total behaviors, and parenting stress. Relations between behaviors that challenge and parenting stress over time were non-significant in our models that controlled for stability of behaviors and parenting stress over time. Implications for research and clinical practice, in understanding and targeting the persistence of behaviors that challenge and parenting stress, are discussed.
