MCMORRIS, Auteur ; Stephanie M. BROWN, Auteur ; James M. BEBKO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1956-1966 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Visual memory  Information processing  Iconic memory  Recall  Speed of processing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Iconic memory is the ability to accurately recall a number of items after a very brief visual exposure. Previous research has examined these capabilities in typically developing (TD) children and individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID); however, there is limited research on these abilities in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Twenty-one TD and eighteen ASD children were presented with circular visual arrays of letters for 100 ms and were asked to recall as many letters as possible or a single letter that was cued for recall. Groups did not differ in the number of items recalled, the rate of information decay, or speed of information processing. These findings suggest that iconic memory is an intact skill for children with ASD, a result that has implications for subsequent information processing.

An exploration of diagnostic identity for autistic individuals: A systematic review of existing literature / Carly A. MCMORRIS ; Tanya E. MUDRY ; Adam W. MCCRIMMON in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 114 (June 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 114 (June 2024) . - p.102394 Titre : An exploration of diagnostic identity for autistic individuals: A systematic review of existing literature Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Carly A.

MCCRIMMON, Auteur Année de publication : 2024 Article en page(s) : p.102394 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Diagnostic identity  Systematic review Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Researchers have explored long-term outcomes for those diagnosed on the autism spectrum, including how autistic individuals come to develop a diagnostic identity. Establishing an identity around a diagnostic label may lead to positive impacts, including a sense of community for those who experience stigma. The topic of autistic diagnostic identity is relatively new and, as such, a synthesized understanding of this literature has yet to be conducted. This systematic review gathered peer-reviewed literature related to autistic diagnostic identity; 20 articles were included. Data were extracted based on design, funding, location, participant age/demographics, age of diagnosis, and definition, description, and impacts of autistic diagnostic identity. Findings highlight that autistic diagnostic identity formation is a time-sensitive process influenced by factors such as age at reporting and societal considerations. Impacts of autistic diagnostic identity, gaps in the literature, and implications for clinicians and professionals working with autistic individuals are discussed.

Atypical Tactile Perception in Early Childhood Autism / Svenja ESPENHAHN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-7 (July 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 53-7 (July 2023) . - p.2891-2904 Titre : Atypical Tactile Perception in Early Childhood Autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Svenja ESPENHAHN, Auteur ; Kate J. GODFREY, Auteur ; Sakshi KAUR, Auteur ; Carly A. MCMORRIS, Auteur ; Kara MURIAS, Auteur ; Mark TOMMERDAHL, Auteur ; Signe BRAY, Auteur ; Ashley D. HARRIS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2891-2904 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We assessed different aspects of tactile perception in young children (3-6 years) with autism. Autistic and neurotypical children completed vibrotactile tasks assessing reaction time, amplitude discrimination (sequential and simultaneous) and temporal discrimination (temporal order judgment and duration discrimination). Autistic children had elevated and more variable reaction times, suggesting slower perceptual-motor processing speed and/or greater distractibility. Children with autism also showed higher amplitude discrimination and temporal order judgement thresholds compared to neurotypical children. Tactile perceptual metrics did not associate with social or tactile sensitivities measured by parent-reports. Altered tactile behavioral responses appear in early childhood, can be quantified but appear dissociated from sensitivity. This implies these measures are complementary, but not necessarily related, phenomena of atypical tactile perception in autism.

Autistic characteristics and mental health symptoms in autistic youth during the first COVID-19 wave in Canada / Kailyn M. TURNER in Autism Research, 16-5 (May 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 16-5 (May 2023) . - p.1009-1023 Titre : Autistic characteristics and mental health symptoms in autistic youth during the first COVID-19 wave in Canada Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kailyn M.

MCMORRIS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1009-1023 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Autistic youth are at heightened risk for mental health issues, and pandemic-related stressors may exacerbate this risk. This study (1) described caregiver-reported youth mental health prior to and during the pandemic; and (2) explored individual, caregiver, and environmental factors associated with changes in autistic characteristics, social-emotional symptoms, and overall mental health. 582 caregivers of autistic children (2-18 years old) completed an online survey between June and July 2020 in which they provided demographic information, their child's pre-COVID and current mental health, autistic characteristics, and social-emotional symptoms. Caregivers also rated their own perceived stress, and COVID-related household and service disruption. According to caregivers, youth experienced more autistic characteristics and social-emotional concerns during the pandemic. Autistic youth were also reported to experience poorer overall mental health during the pandemic than before the pandemic. Older youth whose caregiver's indicated higher perceived stress and greater household disruption were reported to experience more autistic traits during pandemic. Caregiver-reported increases in youth social-emotional symptoms (i.e., behavior problems, anxiety, and low mood) was associated with being older, the presence of a pre-existing mental health condition, higher caregiver stress, and greater household and service disruption. Finally, experiencing less household financial hardship prior to COVID-19, absence of a pre-existing psychiatric condition, less caregiver stress, and less service disruption were associated with better youth pandemic mental health. Strategies to support the autistic community during and following the pandemic need to be developed. The developmental-ecological factors identified in this study could help target support strategies to those autistic youth who are most vulnerable to mental health problems.

AMES, Auteur Article en page(s) : 102260 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Higher education  Postsecondary education  Supports  Academic staff Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Specific supports like social skills training, support groups, and mentorship programs can improve autistic postsecondary students' chances of success. To improve inclusion practices, it is vital to understand the experiences of key staff and administrators who support autistic students during their postsecondary education. This mixed-methods study provides insight into the scope, strengths, and weaknesses of autism-specific services among Canadian universities from the perspective of university staff and administrators associated with accessibility services. Method Thirty-six staff and administrators (N = 36) from publicly-funded Canadian universities responded to an online survey, and eight participated in a follow-up semi-structured interview. Descriptive statistics and reflexive thematic analysis were conducted. Results Half of the participants endorsed having support for autistic students; the most common being for transition to university. Main obstacles to providing autism-specific supports included a need for more funding, knowledgeable staff, and institutional support. In the interviews, participants reported a strong desire to support autistic students; however, noted several barriers, including under-resourced challenges faced by staff and limitations to funding. Conclusions Findings highlight financial and practical challenges to supporting autistic students on postsecondary campuses. We advocate for the implementation and evaluation of wrap-around services for autistic students to enhance their success and promote social inclusion. Achieving this will require changes at all levels of the university system, including leadership and policy decisions involving autistic advocates' perspectives.
