For this purpose we followed 28 adolescents with ASD during their first year of specialized treatment. Results showed that better self-awareness at start of treatment was related with an increase in clinician-reported social functioning after 1 year of treatment. Additionally, an increase in self-awareness during treatment was related with a decrease of parent-reported problems in daily functioning. However, an increase in self-awareness was also related to an increase of self-reported daily and psychological problems. It is discussed that lowered self-awareness may result in an overestimation of personal real-world functioning and consequently may influence treatment course.

Brief Report: Suitability of the Social Skills Performance Assessment (SSPA) for the Assessment of Social Skills in Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders / E. W. M. VERHOEVEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-12 (December 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 43-12 (December 2013) . - p.2990-2996 Titre : Brief Report: Suitability of the Social Skills Performance Assessment (SSPA) for the Assessment of Social Skills in Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : E. W. M. VERHOEVEN, Auteur ; I. SMEEKENS, Auteur ; R. DIDDEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2990-2996 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Social skills  Adults  Role play Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The present study aims at examining whether the ‘Social Skills Performance Assessment’ (SSPA; Patterson et al. in Schizophr Res 48(2–3):351–360, 2001) is a suitable performance-based measure to assess social skills in adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). For this purpose, social skills of individuals with ASD and non-ASD participants were assessed through the SSPA role plays. Results of this study suggest that the SSPA is suitable for the assessment of social skills in adults with ASD. The SSPA discriminates between individuals with ASD and non-ASD individuals, with the ASD group scoring significantly lower. Although no evidence was found for convergent validity of the SSPA in participants with ASD, divergent validity of the SSPA and interrater reliability among adults with ASD were good.

Exploring the Relationship of Autonomic and Endocrine Activity with Social Functioning in Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders / I. SMEEKENS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-2 (February 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 45-2 (February 2015) . - p.495-505 Titre : Exploring the Relationship of Autonomic and Endocrine Activity with Social Functioning in Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : I.

VERHOEVEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.495-505 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Autonomic  Endocrine  Social functioning  Adults Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Several studies indicate that autonomic and endocrine activity may be related to social functioning in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), although the number of studies in adults is limited. The present study explored the relationship of autonomic and endocrine activity with social functioning in young adult males with ASD compared to young adult males without ASD. Autonomic and endocrine activity (i.e. heart rate, heart rate variability and salivary cortisol) were measured during rest and social interaction. No differences in heart rate, heart rate variability and cortisol between both groups were found during rest and social interaction. Repeated measures ANOVA’s indicate a main effect of time for heart rate and cortisol, indicating an increase in these measures for both groups. An interaction effect between time and group was found for heart rate, with the ASD group showing a blunted increase in heart rate from rest to social interaction as compared to those without ASD. Future research should focus on replicating the present findings with larger sample sizes which also enables assessing inter-individual variability in autonomic and endocrine activity in relation to social functioning.

Stop Making Noise! Auditory Sensitivity in Adults with an Autism Spectrum Disorder Diagnosis: Physiological Habituation and Subjective Detection Thresholds / M. W. M. KUIPER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 49-5 (May 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 49-5 (May 2019) . - p.2116-2128 Titre : Stop Making Noise!

GEURTS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2116-2128 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Auditory  Autism  Detection threshold  Habituation  Sensory sensitivity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Auditory sensitivities are common among people with autism spectrum disorder diagnoses (ASD). As underlying factors are unknown, we examined whether ASD adults (NASD = 33; NTypically Developing = 31; 25-45 years; IQ > 70): (1) habituated slower to auditory stimuli; (2) had lower auditory detection thresholds; and (3) whether these mechanisms related to self-reported auditory sensitivities. Two auditory stimuli (tone, siren) were repeated, whilst skin conductance responses were recorded to measure habituation. Detection thresholds were measured by stepwise reductions in tone volume. We found no evidence in favor of our hypotheses, but ASD adults did rate the auditory stimuli as more arousing. Based on explorative analyses, we argue that studying the strength of physiological responses to auditory stimuli is needed to understand auditory sensitivities.
