BROWN, Auteur ; Elizabeth KELLEY, Auteur ; Hélène OUELLETTE-KUNTZ, Auteur ; Duncan HUNTER, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.539-547 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism-spectrum-disorders Needs-assessment Perceived-need Service-use Functional-independence Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The assessment of support needs of children with an autism spectrum disorder and their families has been hindered by the ambiguity surrounding the definition of need and the lack of a conceptual framework to guide investigations. This paper examines two major approaches to measuring need and discusses their appropriateness for use in autism. We focus on school-aged children, because of the relative lack of research in this area and the challenges of measuring need in children with an autism spectrum disorder in this age group. A conceptual framework, which explores parents’ perceived need, is proposed. We suggest that the child's adaptive skills and challenging behaviors will be important in predicting the extent of the parent's perceived unmet need.

Beyond an Autism Diagnosis: Children’s Functional Independence and Parents’ Unmet Needs / Hilary K. BROWN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 41-10 (October 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 41-10 (October 2011) . - p.1291-1302 Titre : Beyond an Autism Diagnosis: Children’s Functional Independence and Parents’ Unmet Needs Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Hilary K. BROWN, Auteur ; Hélène OUELLETTE-KUNTZ, Auteur ; Duncan HUNTER, Auteur ; Elizabeth KELLEY, Auteur ; Virginie COBIGO, Auteur ; Miu LAM, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.1291-1302 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Unmet need  Functional independence  Impact on family Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : High demand has resulted in gaps in autism service provision. Our objective was to explore the association between children’s functioning and parents’ perceived unmet needs. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 97 families of school-aged children with an autism spectrum disorder. Log binomial regression was used to examine the relative risk for unmet need. Families of children with high functional independence had lower unmet need than families of children with moderate functional independence (RR = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.67-0.99). Those who experienced greater impact of the child’s disability had greater unmet need (RR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.03–1.45). The child’s functioning and its impact on the family provide insight into unmet need which may inform service planning.
