In total, 115 caregivers reported on their own anxiety and worries and of their children. Anxiety levels for individuals with DS appeared to be lower compared to other SEND populations and to TDS. In terms of worries, individuals with DS worried more about social-related worries but worried less about family-related aspects compared to the other groups. In sum, individuals with DS might show less anxiety but still worried more about specific aspects related to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on their lives.

Emotion Dysregulation and the Core Features of Autism Spectrum Disorder / Andrea C. SAMSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-7 (July 2014)

An 18-item Emotion Dysregulation Index was developed on the basis of expert ratings of the Child Behavior Checklist. Compared to typically developing controls, children and adolescents with ASD showed more emotion dysregulation and had significantly greater symptom severity on all scales. Within ASD participants, emotion dysregulation was related to all core features of the disorder, but the strongest association was with repetitive behaviors. These findings may facilitate the development of more effective therapeutic strategies targeting emotion dysregulation in order to optimize long-term outcomes for individuals with ASD.

Emotion regulation in autism spectrum disorder: evidence from parent interviews and children's daily diaries / Andrea C. SAMSON in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 56-8 (August 2015)

GROSS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.903-913 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  core features  emotion regulation  restricted and repetitive behaviors  social/communication deficits Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Although emotion dysregulation is not a defining feature of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), there is a growing consensus that emotional problems play a prominent role in this disorder. Methods The present study examined a wide range of emotion regulation (ER) strategies in 32 individuals with ASD compared to 31 group-matched typically developing (TD) participants in three emotional domains (anger, anxiety, and amusement). Parents of individuals with ASD and TD individuals were interviewed about their child's emotional experience and the use and efficacy of 10 ER strategies. In addition, participants filled out daily diaries on experience and regulation in the same emotional domains. Results Compared to TD individuals, parents reported that individuals with ASD experienced more anger and anxiety and less amusement, made less frequent use of a variety of adaptive ER strategies (e.g. problem solving, cognitive reappraisal), and made more frequent use of maladaptive strategies (e.g. repetitive behavior). Moreover, individuals with ASD were less effective at utilizing adaptive ER strategies. Self-reports showed differences in experience of amusement and in ER strategies for anger and anxiety, but not in experience of anger and anxiety. Conclusions This study provides evidence that individuals with ASD less frequently use adaptive – but more frequently use maladaptive – ER strategies. Implications for ASD treatments that focus on increasing the use of adaptive strategies are discussed.

Emotion regulation in autism spectrum disorder: Where we are and where we need to go / Ru Ying CAI in Autism Research, 11-7 (July 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 11-7 (July 2018) . - p.962-978 Titre : Emotion regulation in autism spectrum disorder: Where we are and where we need to go Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ru Ying CAI, Auteur ; A. L. RICHDALE, Auteur ; M. ULJAREVIC, Auteur ; Cheryl DISSANAYAKE, Auteur ; Andrea C. SAMSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.962-978 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asd  autism spectrum disorder  emotion regulation  flexibility  method  outcomes Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Emotion dysregulation is a common issue experienced by individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and has been associated with a wide range of negative mental and physical health outcomes. This commentary highlights the role emotion dysregulation plays in ASD by first considering the literature on emotion regulation (ER) in the general population and then summarizing the ER research in ASD. Based on the evaluation of previous research findings, we conclude that individuals with ASD have more ER difficulties and consistently self-report or demonstrate a less adaptive pattern of ER strategy use. In addition, the higher prevalence of internalizing and externalizing issues seen in ASD are associated with the greater habitual use of some ER strategies and less habitual use of others. Conceptual and methodological limitations are discussed, including the use of coping measures and single-method approaches, and ASD gender distribution. We propose a set of new directions for investigating ER in ASD, incorporating knowledge from other literatures on the role of flexibility in healthy adaptation, overlaps between flexibility and executive function deficits, the adaptive value of up-regulation of positive emotions, and the importance of emotional self-awareness. Increasing our capacity for identifying the mechanisms underlying co-morbid affective disorders can ultimately inform the design of effective interventions to maximize the wellbeing of individuals with ASD. Autism Res 2018, 11: 962-978. (c) 2018 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc. LAY SUMMARY: Research has shown that people diagnosed with autism tend to have difficulties with regulating their own emotions. This commentary article summarizes the main information from emotion regulation research conducted both in autism and in other populations. We make suggestions on how we can improve emotion regulation research in autism, with the ultimate goal being to use the learning gained from research to design effective interventions that can improve the wellbeing of people with autism.

Emotion Regulation in Children and Adolescents With Autism Spectrum Disorder / Andrea C. SAMSON in Autism Research, 8-1 (February 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 8-1 (February 2015) . - p.9-18 Titre : Emotion Regulation in Children and Adolescents With Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Andrea C. SAMSON, Auteur ; Antonio Y. HARDAN, Auteur ; Rebecca W. PODELL, Auteur ; Jennifer M. PHILLIPS, Auteur ; James J. GROSS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.9-18 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  emotional reactivity  emotion regulation  cognitive reappraisal  suppression Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Emotion dysregulation is not a formal criterion for the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, parents and clinicians have long noted the importance of emotional problems in individuals with ASD (e.g. tantrums and “meltdowns”). In this study, 21 high-functioning children and adolescents with ASD and 22 age and gender group-matched typically developing (TD) controls completed a Reactivity and Regulation Situation Task. This task assesses emotional reactivity and spontaneous use of emotion regulation strategies (problem solving, cognitive reappraisal, avoidance, distraction, venting, suppression, and relaxation) in the context of age-appropriate ambiguous and potentially threatening negative scenarios. After the concept of cognitive reappraisal was explained, the scenarios were presented again to participants, and they were prompted to use this strategy. Results indicated that individuals with ASD exhibited the same level of reactivity to negative stimuli as TD participants. Furthermore, youth with ASD had a different emotion regulation profile than TD individuals, characterized by a less frequent use of cognitive reappraisal and more frequent use of suppression. When prompted to use cognitive reappraisal, participants with ASD were less able to implement reappraisal, but benefitted from this strategy when they were able to generate a reappraisal. Findings from this study suggest that cognitive reappraisal strategies may be useful to children and adolescents with ASD. Therefore, the development of treatment programs that focus on enhancing the use of adaptive forms of emotion regulation might decrease emotional problems and optimize long-term outcomes in youth with ASD.
