Health-related quality of life in children with autism spectrum disorders and children with developmental language disorders / Catherine COALES in Autism & Developmental Language Impairments, 4 (January-December 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism & Developmental Language Impairments > 4 (January-December 2019) Titre : Health-related quality of life in children with autism spectrum disorders and children with developmental language disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Catherine COALES, Auteur ; Natalie HEANEY, Auteur ; Jessie RICKETTS, Auteur ; Julie E. DOCKRELL, Auteur ; Geoff LINDSAY, Auteur ; Olympia PALIKARA, Auteur ; Tony CHARMAN, Auteur Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background and aimsThere is a paucity of literature investigating health-related quality of life in neurodevelopmental populations including children with developmental language disorders and children with autism spectrum disorder. Health-related quality of life in these two groups remains poorly understood. Furthermore, studies have typically relied on reports from caregivers and teachers rather than using self-report measures. The aim of the current study is to compare the levels and profiles of self-reported health-related quality of life of children with developmental language disorders and children with autism spectrum disorder.MethodsParticipants comprised 114 7-to-13-year-old children with developmental language disorders (n=63) and children with autism spectrum disorder (n=51) attending mainstream school. Self-reported health-related quality of life was measured using the KIDSCREEN-52. We also collected standardised measures of receptive language, autism spectrum disorder symptoms, nonverbal IQ and emotional and behavioural problems.ResultsChildren with developmental language disorders reported health-related quality of life commensurate with normative ranges, except for 2 of the 10 dimensions; the Moods and Emotions domain and the Social acceptance/bullying domain, which were below norms. Children with autism spectrum disorder reported significantly lower health-related quality of life compared to norms and the developmental language disorders group. However, when the effects of non-verbal ability and language ? on which the groups were not matched ? were covaried most group differences fell to non-significance or disappeared. Child characteristics showed few associations with dimensions of health-related quality of life across groups.ConclusionsChildren with autism spectrum disorder may be particularly vulnerable to poorer health-related quality of life and the relevant professionals need to be aware of this. Children with developmental language disorders exhibit a profile of health-related quality of life more in-line with average ranges. However, certain domains warrant monitoring and may benefit from intervention. Many of the between-group differences in self-reported health-related quality of life disappeared when non-verbal and language ability were covaried, though neither of the covariates was systematically related to scores. Other within-child factors such as emotional understanding and competence should be explored in future studies.ImplicationsFurther research into child and contextual factors may elucidate risk or protective factors for health-related quality of life in children with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Reading Comprehension in Autism Spectrum Disorders: The Role of Oral Language and Social Functioning / Jessie RICKETTS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-4 (April 2013)

JONES, Auteur ; Francesca HAPPE, Auteur ; Tony CHARMAN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.807-816 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Reading comprehension  Mentalising  Oral language Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Reading comprehension is an area of difficulty for many individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). According to the Simple View of Reading, word recognition and oral language are both important determinants of reading comprehension ability. We provide a novel test of this model in 100 adolescents with ASD of varying intellectual ability. Further, we explore whether reading comprehension is additionally influenced by individual differences in social behaviour and social cognition in ASD. Adolescents with ASD aged 14–16 years completed assessments indexing word recognition, oral language, reading comprehension, social behaviour and social cognition. Regression analyses show that both word recognition and oral language explain unique variance in reading comprehension. Further, measures of social behaviour and social cognition predict reading comprehension after controlling for the variance explained by word recognition and oral language. This indicates that word recognition, oral language and social impairments may constrain reading comprehension in ASD.

Research Review: Reading comprehension in developmental disorders of language and communication / Jessie RICKETTS in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 52-11 (November 2011)

Methods:  In this review (based on a search of the ISI Web of Knowledge database to 2011), the Simple View of Reading is used as a framework for considering reading comprehension in these groups. Conclusions:  There is substantial evidence for reading comprehension impairments in SLI and growing evidence that weaknesses in this domain are common in DS and ASD. Further, in these groups reading comprehension is typically more impaired than word recognition. However, there is also evidence that some children and adolescents with DS, ASD and a history of SLI develop reading comprehension and word recognition skills at or above the age appropriate level. This review of the literature indicates that factors including word recognition, oral language, nonverbal ability and working memory may explain reading comprehension difficulties in SLI, DS and ASD. In addition, it highlights methodological issues, implications of poor reading comprehension and fruitful areas for future research.
