Service and Wider Societal Costs of Very Young Children with Autism in the UK / Barbara BARRETT in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 42-5 (May 2012)

We describe the services used by 152 children aged 24–60 months with autism, report family out-of-pocket expenses and productivity losses, and explore the relationship between family characteristics and costs. Children received a wide range of hospital and community services including relatively high levels of contact with speech and language therapists and paediatricians. Total service costs varied greatly (mean £430 per month; range £53 to £1,116), with some families receiving little statutory support. Higher costs were associated with increasing age and symptom severity.

The Modified-Classroom Observation Schedule to Measure Intentional Communication (M-COSMIC): Evaluation of reliability and validity / Sally M. CLIFFORD in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 4-3 (July-September 2010)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 4-3 (July-September 2010) . - p.509-525 Titre : The Modified-Classroom Observation Schedule to Measure Intentional Communication (M-COSMIC): Evaluation of reliability and validity Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sally M. CLIFFORD, Auteur ; Tony CHARMAN, Auteur ; Greg PASCO, Auteur ; Kristelle HUDRY, Auteur ; Laura BROWN, Auteur ; PACT CONSORTIUM, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.509-525 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism-spectrum-disorders Observation Ecological-validity Social-Communication School Measurement Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The Modified-Classroom Observation Schedule to Measure Intentional Communication (M-COSMIC) was developed as an ecologically valid measure of social-communication behaviour, delineating forms, functions, and intended partners of children's spontaneous communication acts. Forty-one children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) aged 48–73 months were filmed within small-group settings at school. Communication behaviours during a 5-min teacher-led activity and a 10-min free-play session were coded from videotape. Inter-rater reliability was high. Many M-COSMIC codes were significantly associated as predicted with Social and Communication domain scores on the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) and with scores on standardised language assessments. Agreement was more variable, however, at the level of individual M-COSMIC codes and ADOS items. Higher rates of responding, compliance behaviours and following pointing gestures and gaze occurred during the more structured teacher-led activity, compared to the free-play. Results demonstrate preliminary construct validity of the M-COSMIC, showing its potential to describe and evaluate spontaneous social-communication skills in young children with ASD for research and applied purposes.
