Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 42-6 (June 2012) . - p.954-960 Titre : Adaptive Response of Children and Adolescents with Autism to the 2009 Earthquake in L’Aquila, Italy Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marco VALENTI, Auteur ; Tiziana CIPRIETTI, Auteur ; Claudia DI EGIDIO, Auteur ; Maura GABRIELLI, Auteur ; Francesco MASEDU, Auteur ; Anna Rita TOMASSINI, Auteur ; Germana SORGE, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.954-960 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Post-traumatic stress disorder  Adaptive behaviour  Post-disaster adaptation  Intensive behavioural intervention  Resiliency Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The literature offers no descriptions of the adaptive outcomes of people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) after natural disasters. Aim of this study was to evaluate the adaptive behaviour of participants with ASD followed for 1 year after their exposure to the 2009 earthquake in L’Aquila (Italy) compared with an unexposed peer group with ASD, by administering the Italian form of the Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scales (VABS) at baseline, 6 months and 1 year after the earthquake. Exposed participants declined dramatically in their adaptive behaviour during the first months after the earthquake (p < 0.01 for all VABS dimensions). However, immediate intensive post-disaster intervention allowed children and adolescents with autism showing a trend towards partial recovery of adaptive functioning.
