In the current study, event-related potentials (ERPs) were measured in 12 individuals with ASD, aged 8–22 years, and 12 age- and gender-matched normal controls, to investigate the electrophysiological response to BM and a control visual stimulus. By introducing a novel experimental paradigm that can dissociate the electrophysiological responses to motion processing and the global shape processing of BM, we found that: (1) the timing of the response was preserved in ASD groups, whereas (2) the ERP response to BM was significantly enhanced compared with scrambled point-light motion (SM) in normal controls; the responses to both BM and SM were not significantly different in subjects with ASD. Because we did not find a significant group effect on the peak and mean amplitude induced by BM, it is presumed that this atypical response in individuals with ASD was due to over-sensitivity to the local motion signals. This experimental paradigm showed atypical local motion processing of BM in individuals with ASD.

The Roland–Morris disability scale for the assessment of non-specific low back pain outcomes among disability sector workers / Jin-Ding LIN in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 8-12 (December 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 8-12 (December 2014) . - p.1635-1640 Titre : The Roland–Morris disability scale for the assessment of non-specific low back pain outcomes among disability sector workers Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jin-Ding LIN, Auteur ; Sheng-Fang SU, Auteur ; Lan-Ping LIN, Auteur ; Shang-Wei HSU, Auteur ; Jia-Ling WU, Auteur ; Cordia M. CHU, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1635-1640 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Low back pain  Roland–Morris Disability Questionnaire  Caregiver  Disability sector Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Low back pain (LBP) is the most common cause of time lost from work and has significant personal impacts and societal burdens. Caregivers for patients with disabilities have a high LBP prevalence that requires attention in the public health system. This study aimed to understand the LBP disability outcomes and determinants of care workers for people with intellectual, autistic and associated multiple disabilities. Study subjects included 678 care workers in 15 disability institutions who reported that they had experienced acute or chronic nonspecific LBP in the previous year. The effects of the LBP outcome were measured by the Roland–Morris Disability Questionnaire (RDQ), which is a self-rated assessment of pain-related disability used in this study. The mean score of the RDQ was 3.97 (range 0–24). Of the respondents, 14% expressed that they were free from pain disability (score = 0), 66.4% subjects expressed they had a little pain disability (score 1–6), 14.7% subjects reported that they were mildly affected by pain disability (score 7–12), 3.8% subjects reported that they were moderately affected by pain disability (score 13–18), and 1% reported they had severe pain disability (score 19–24). A multiple linear regression of the pain disability score revealed that those care workers who expressed that LBP affects their work and living (p lt; 0.001), had ever sought pain care (p = 0.008), with moderate (p = 0.001) and severe (p = 0.001) levels of LBP were significantly associated with a higher score of pain disability than their counterparts (R2 = 22.6%). This study suggests that a comprehensive assessment of pain disability and treatment strategies for LBP should be undertaken regarding the needs of care workers in disability sectors.

We investigated the serum levels of vitamin D, calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and folate in 54 young children, aged 3–8 years, with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and in 54 age and gender matched normal controls. Vitamin D, Ca, P, ALP and folate levels in children with ASD were not different from control group. The correlational analysis in children with ASD revealed that Aberrant Behaviour Checklist, Autism Behaviour Checklist, and Childhood Autism Rating Scale scores and the level of cognitive development were not correlated with these laboratory findings. Our findings do not support the idea that serum levels of vitamin D and folate might be low in children with ASD. Nevertheless, it is possible that vitamin D and folate deficiency may be playing a role in development of ASD at earlier ages or during prenatal period.

In the eye of the beholder: Reports of autism symptoms by Anglo and Latino mothers / Jan BLACHER in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 8-12 (December 2014)

Children suspected of ASD (28 Anglo and 55 Latino) were assessed via the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) and the mother Intake Form. A sub-sample of 40 children were assessed with the Autism Disagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R). The primary objective was to determine whether Anglo and Latino mothers differed in their symptom reports, and whether their children differed in the professional classifications. Anglo mothers reported significantly more developmental concerns and ASD symptoms than Latino mothers, yet Latino children meeting diagnostic criteria for autism on the ADOS obtained higher ASD severity scores than Anglo children. The authors set forth three possible explanations for such discrepancies between parents and professionals in perceptions and reporting of autism symptoms: (1) Latino mothers are not as aware of the symptoms, and thus do not report them; and (2) Latino mothers are aware of general developmental delay but not as concerned as Anglo mothers until social communication deficits become more apparent. (3) Latino mothers’ parenting practices and cultural beliefs about child-rearing might mask both the ASD symptomatology exhibited by their children and their recognition of it.

Social and non-social deficits in children with high-functioning autism and their cooperative behaviors / Jing LI in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 8-12 (December 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 8-12 (December 2014) . - p.1657-1671 Titre : Social and non-social deficits in children with high-functioning autism and their cooperative behaviors Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jing LI, Auteur ; Liqi ZHU, Auteur ; Jing LIU, Auteur ; Xue LI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1657-1671 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : High-functioning autism (HFA)  Cooperation  Theory of mind (ToM)  Executive function  Central coherence Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract The persistent deficits in social communication and social interactions of individuals with high-functioning autism (HFA) may impair their cooperative behaviors. This study investigated the relationship between social and non-social deficits in children with HFA and the cooperative behaviors of such children. Theory of mind (ToM), executive function, and central coherence of children with HFA and typically developing (TD) children, aged 6–12 years, were investigated, and the effects of these social and non-social deficits on children's cooperativeness were examined. The classical prisoner's dilemma game (PDG) and cooperative implemental tasks were used to assess children's cooperativeness. ToM was measured using a series of classical false belief tasks and the face test. The Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (WCST) and the Embedded Figures Test (EFT) were administered to assess executive function and central coherence, respectively. The results showed that there was no significant difference in cooperation in PDG between HFA and TD children, while cooperation in children with HFA in the interruption period of the implemental tasks was significantly lower than that of TD children. Children with HFA had social deficits and had more poorly developed ToM than TD children, and executive function in children with HFA was poorer than that in TD children. Different types of deficits were predictive of HFA children's degree of cooperation on different tasks: the social perceptual component of ToM and executive function predicted children's cooperativeness in the PDG, and executive function predicted HFA children's cooperativeness during the interruption period of an implemental task. By contrast, central coherence did not predict either of the two types of cooperation. It might indicate that the two different types of cooperative tasks may require different mental abilities.

Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract The broader autism phenotype (BAP), which refers to the expression of behavioral and cognitive propensities that are milder but qualitatively similar to those defining autism spectrum disorder, can play a crucial role in postpartum depression (PPD). We investigated whether pregnant women's BAP would increase the risk for PPD, using a representative birth cohort in Japan. Pregnant women were enrolled in the Hamamatsu Birth Cohort (HBC) Study during their mid-gestation (N = 841) and were followed up until 3 months after delivery. BAP was measured mainly during the 2nd trimester of the pregnancy by using the Broader Phenotype Autism Symptoms Scale. Participants scoring 9 points or higher on the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale at least once during the first 3 months after childbirth were diagnosed with PPD. Among participants, 128 (15.2%) women were found to have PPD. Multiple logistic regression analyses showed that BAP were associated with PPD (OR = 1.19, 95% CI [1.07–1.31]), even after controlling for other potential confounders. In addition, the association was not moderated by history of depression and/or anxiety disorders, including concurrent depressive and anxiety symptoms during pregnancy. The findings suggest that pregnant women with BAP have an elevated risk for PPD.

During the initial baseline condition participants were given pedometers to wear. Once each participant's number of steps stabilized, she/he sets daily goals for minimum number of steps taken and received access to valued objects or activities (reinforcers) for meeting those goals. By the end of the first treatment condition each of five participants was successfully meeting his or her goal and walking at or above 10,000 steps each day. Walking decreased when a return to baseline was implemented, then increased when treatment was reinstated. Social validity assessment indicated that both the participants and their teacher found the intervention highly acceptable.

Several medical conditions including gastrointestinal (GI) problems, asthma and allergies have been associated with ASD, and multiple risk factors, both genetic and environmental, have been proposed. Among them, vitamin D (VD) deficiency is probably associated with ASD, and may play a role in the condition. We conducted a systematic review of the literature for the period January 1, 2010 through June 15, 2014, according to PRISMA guidelines, aiming to investigate the complex biological interplay between VD, metabolism, immune system and nervous system in ASD. Different trends in the association between ASD and VD deficiency have been observed, and factors such as gender, ethnicity, sampling, and methodology play a role in the results and outcomes. At present, for at least a subgroup of ASD individuals, an imbalance in VD metabolism probably exists and may be associated with the condition. In this cohort, VD replacement in these individuals might contribute to improving ASD symptoms and/or associated conditions. This topic is an important challenge for future research, and could lead to a new tailored therapeutic approach for VD in ASD.

Research has shown that impairments in social functioning distinguish this population from both typically developing children and children with disabilities. This study incorporated several evidence-based social skills-teaching procedures (i.e., direct instruction, priming, prompting, peer-mediation, contingent reinforcement, and token economies) directly in the recess setting to increase appropriate social behaviors for four children with ASD (ages 6–8). Elements of peer networks and pivotal response training (two types of social skills intervention packages in the literature) were included. Results showed significant increases in social communication between focus children and their peers, as well as generalization of skills to non-intervention recesses.

Health communication: A pilot study comparing perceptions of women with and without high functioning autism spectrum disorder / Michelle LUM in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 8-12 (December 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 8-12 (December 2014) . - p.1713-1721 Titre : Health communication: A pilot study comparing perceptions of women with and without high functioning autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Michelle LUM, Auteur ; Michelle GARNETT, Auteur ; Erin O’CONNOR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1713-1721 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : High functioning autism  Communication  Healthcare  Stigma  Women Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Research indicates significant health disparities for individuals with autism. Insight into characteristic sensory, cognitive, communication, social, emotional, and behavioural challenges that may influence health communication for patients with autism is vital to address potential disparities. Women with high functioning autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may have specific healthcare needs, and are likely to independently represent themselves and others in healthcare. A pilot study compared perceptions of healthcare experiences for women with and without ASD using on-line survey based on characteristics of ASD likely to influence healthcare. Fifty-eight adult female participants (32 with ASD diagnosis, 26 without ASD diagnosis) were recruited on-line from autism support organisations. Perceptions measured included self-reporting of pain and symptoms, healthcare seeking behaviours, the influence of emotional distress, sensory and social anxiety, maternity experiences, and the influence of autistic status disclosure. Results partially support the hypothesis that ASD women experience greater healthcare challenges. Women with ASD reported greater challenges in healthcare anxiety, communication under emotional distress, anxiety relating to waiting rooms, support during pregnancy, and communication during childbirth. Self-disclosure of diagnostic status and lack of ASD awareness by healthcare providers rated as highly problematic. Results offer detailed insight into healthcare communication and disparities for women with ASD.

Participants were 217 children (aged 7–13 years) with ASD without Intellectual Disability attending 41 mainstream primary schools in NSW Australia. Data on emotional competence, social skills and mental health difficulties were collected using teacher and parent informant report questionnaires in a pre-test/post-test control group design. One hundred and six students took part in the treatment and 111 students were in the control group. School Counsellors delivered the 16 session treatment to groups of 3–8 students in their schools. Teachers and parents also received six sessions of EBSST in separate groups. Participants received a booster session at six months follow-up. EBSST improved teacher reported emotional competence as measured by the Emotions Development Questionnaire (EDQ). The effect size was large and improvements were sustained at 6 months follow-up. Parent reported emotional competence and more general measures of social skills and mental health were insensitive to change across informants. This study has important implications for students, teachers and parents and provides a valuable basis for further research and development of EBSST and the EDQ.

Additionally, discrimination between picture icons and sentence frames were investigated. Using a five second time delay, with full physical prompts, participants were taught to label four items using the carrier phrases “I see” and “I have”. Following the acquisition of those frames in isolation, training on discriminating between those frames was introduced. The results indicate that the training procedures were effective for this purpose, thus contributing to the already existing literature on the use of handheld computing devices as SGD.

In Experiment 1, school-aged children with ASD and ability-matched typically developing (TD) children participated in a game to find a hidden prize. An adult repeatedly misinformed children about the whereabouts of the prize. Although children with ASD did not blindly trust all information provided by the informant, they were significantly more trusting of the deceptive adult than TD children. Further, children with ASD were less likely to retaliate by deceiving the adult than TD children. Experiment 2 showed that children with ASD who distrusted a deceptive adult were less flexible and therefore less able to generalize their distrust to different situations compared to TD children.
