Acoustic differences in the imitation of prosodic patterns in children with autism spectrum disorders / Joshua John DIEHL in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-1 (January-March 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 6-1 (January-March 2012) . - p.123-134 Titre : Acoustic differences in the imitation of prosodic patterns in children with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Joshua John DIEHL, Auteur ; Rhea PAUL, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.123-134 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Imitation  Prosody  Acoustic  Communication  Pragmatics Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In research, it has been difficult to characterize the prosodic production differences that have been observed clinically in autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Moreover, the nature of these differences has been particularly hard to identify. This study examined one possible contributor to these perceived differences: motor planning. We examined the ability of children and adolescents with ASD to imitate prosodic patterns in comparison to a group with learning disabilities (LD) and a typically developing (TD) comparison group. Overall, we found that both the ASD and LD groups were significantly worse at perceiving and imitating prosodic patterns than the TD comparison group. Similar to previous studies using non-imitative speech, participants with ASD showed a significantly longer duration of utterances than the two comparison groups when attempting to imitate an intonation pattern. The implications of differences in duration of utterances are discussed. This study also highlights the importance of using clinical comparison groups in studies of language performance in individuals with ASD.

Brief Report: A Pilot Summer Robotics Camp to Reduce Social Anxiety and Improve Social/Vocational Skills in Adolescents with ASD / Juhi R. KABOSKI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-12 (December 2015)

The intervention utilized a shared interest in robotics among participants to facilitate natural social interaction between individuals with ASD and typically developing (TD) peers. Eight individuals with ASD and eight TD peers ages 12–17 participated in a weeklong robotics camp, during which they learned robotic facts, actively programmed an interactive robot, and learned “career” skills. The ASD group showed a significant decrease in social anxiety and both groups showed an increase in robotics knowledge, although neither group showed a significant increase in social skills. These initial findings suggest that this approach is promising and warrants further study.

Family level processes associated with outcomes for individuals with autism spectrum disorder: A scoping review / Jessica L. GREENLEE in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 53 (September 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 53 (September 2018) . - p.41-52 Titre : Family level processes associated with outcomes for individuals with autism spectrum disorder: A scoping review Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jessica L.

WINTER, Auteur ; Joshua John DIEHL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.41-52 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Family  Family systems theory  Family functioning  Family processes Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Families of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) face distinct challenges, and there is a need for research that attends specifically to the family. Despite the recognition of reciprocal influences in the family, research on families of individuals with ASD has tended to focus on child effects within a dyadic subsystem and not necessarily family effects. Thus, this review focuses on whether and how family processes are associated with the behavioral, social, and/or emotional development of individuals with ASD. Method A scoping review was conducted to synthesize existing empirical literature regarding links from family functioning to individual outcomes. Family systems approaches are used along with ecological models to provide an inclusive, guiding framework for research design and interpretation of findings in family-based ASD research. Results Results suggest that family-wide factors such as adaptability, cohesion, social support, dynamics, and functioning may be important for child development. However, the heterogeneity of the body of literature reviewed makes definitive conclusions difficult. Conclusions Recommendations for future research, including the need for theoretically grounded, developmentally appropriate, models that highlight the unique strengths, challenges, and cultural influences of families of an individual with ASD are discussed.

Measurement Tools and Target Symptoms/Skills Used to Assess Treatment Response for Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Erin Elizabeth BOLTE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-11 (November 2013)

Data from 195 prospective trials were analyzed. There were 289 unique measurement tools, of which 61.6 % were used only once, and 20.8 % were investigator-designed. Only three tools were used in more than 2 % of the studies, and none were used in more than 7 % of studies. Studies investigated an average of 11.4 tool-symptom combinations per trial, with as many as 45 in one study. These results represent a lack of consistency in outcome measurements in ASD intervention trials. These findings highlight the need to set guidelines for appropriate outcome measurement in the ASD field.

Perceived Autonomy Support in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Nicole M. SHEA in Autism - Open Access, 3-2 (September 2013)

Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Autonomy  Self-determination  Intrinsic motivation  Extrinsic motivation  School  Social skills  Academics  Friendship Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autonomy support has been found to be critical for typically developing children, but not as much is known about its importance for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The current study examined the relationship between autonomy support, self-determination, scholastic competence and social acceptance in ASD. Twenty-six participants with high-functioning ASD completed self-report measures related to autonomy support, friendship, and academics. We found that greater teacher autonomy support was related to higher self-determination in school, and in turn, higher scholastic competence. Self-determination in friendship did not function as a mediator between mother/father autonomy support and social acceptance, but self-determination in friendship was significantly related to social acceptance. This study highlights the importance of fostering self-determination in both the academic and social lives of individuals with ASD. Future studies should examine best practices for incorporating autonomy support into existing scholastic settings and interventions.
