WISC-IV Profile in High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders: Impaired Processing Speed is Associated with Increased Autism Communication Symptoms and Decreased Adaptive Communication Abilities / Rafael E. OLIVERAS-RENTAS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 42-5 (May 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 42-5 (May 2012) . - p.655-664 Titre : WISC-IV Profile in High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders: Impaired Processing Speed is Associated with Increased Autism Communication Symptoms and Decreased Adaptive Communication Abilities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Rafael E. OLIVERAS-RENTAS, Auteur ; Lauren E. KENWORTHY, Auteur ; Richard B. ROBERSON, Auteur ; Alex MARTIN, Auteur ; Gregory L. WALLACE, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.655-664 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  IQ  Processing speed  Symptomatology  Adaptive behavior  ADHD  Intelligence Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Changes in the Wechsler Intelligence Scales for Children-IV (WISC-IV) may affect the IQ profile characteristic of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Moreover, the association of particular component cognitive abilities (unlike overall IQ) with symptomatology and adaptive functioning in ASD remains unclear. This archival study characterizes the WISC-IV IQ profile among 56 high-functioning (IQ > 70) children with ASD and correlates WISC-IV performance with ASD and ADHD symptomatology and adaptive functioning. The ASD WISC-IV profile included strengths on Matrix Reasoning and Similarities, weaknesses on Comprehension (which correlated negatively with social symptoms) and the subtests comprising the Processing Speed Index (Coding, Symbol Search). Processing speed task performance correlated negatively with communication symptoms and positively with communication abilities, indicating its importance to functional outcomes in ASD.
