We estimated the number of African American children with autism in the St. Louis region using CDC surveillance data and present the outcomes of a concerted effort to enroll approximately one-third of that population into either of two large national genetic autism registries. The results revealed that even after traditional barriers to research participation were addressed and all contacted families expressed a willingness to participate, 67% of the reachable families were disqualified from participation because of family structure alone. Comprehensive efforts—including expansion of eligibility to families of diverse structure—are warranted to facilitate the inclusion of African American children in biomedical research.

Leisure Participation Patterns for School Age Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Findings from the 2016 National Survey of Children’s Health / Karen RATCLIFF in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-11 (November 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 48-11 (November 2018) . - p.3783-3793 Titre : Leisure Participation Patterns for School Age Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Findings from the 2016 National Survey of Children’s Health Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Karen RATCLIFF, Auteur ; Ickpyo HONG, Auteur ; Claudia HILTON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3783-3793 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Leisure activity participation is important for health and well-being. This study examined similarities and differences between typically developing children and those with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) from 6 to 17 years old in physical, recreational, social, skill, and jobs/chores activities from a large national database. Findings revealed that children with ASD had significantly lower participation levels than those without ASD between 11 and 17 years old. They suggest an increasing disparity among many types of leisure participation for children and youth with ASD as they age, eventually leading to limited participation in adult activities. They reinforce the importance of intervention at an early age to increase participation in these activities to promote development of skills that contribute to adult competencies.

Motor impairment in sibling pairs concordant and discordant for autism spectrum disorders / Claudia LIST HILTON in Autism, 16-4 (July 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 16-4 (July 2012) . - p.430-441 Titre : Motor impairment in sibling pairs concordant and discordant for autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Claudia LIST HILTON, Auteur ; Yi ZHANG, Auteur ; Megan R. WHILTE, Auteur ; Cheryl L. KLOHR, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.430-441 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : sibling studies  body coordination  manual dexterity  fine manual control  strength  agility  motor coordination  pervasive developmental disorder  endophenotype Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Aim: Although motor impairment is frequently observed in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), the manner in which these impairments aggregate in families affected by autism is unknown. We used a standardized measure of motor proficiency to objectively examine quantitative variation in motor proficiency in sibling pairs concordant and discordant for ASD.Methods: Motor impairment of sibling pairs from 67 ASD-affected families comprising 29 concordant pairings and 48 discordant pairings were assessed using the Bruininks Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, 2nd Edition, a standardized measure of motor proficiency.Results: Motor skills were substantially impaired among ASD-affected children and highly correlated with autistic severity and IQ, whereas motor skills in unaffected siblings were essentially normal. Total motor composite scores of at least one standard deviation below the general population mean were seen in 83% of the affected group compared with 6% in the unaffected siblings.Interpretation: Findings indicate that motor impairment constitutes a core characteristic of ASD (not necessarily an ASD endophenotype), which has distinct implications for taxonomy, diagnosis, and approaches to intervention.

Relationship between motor skill impairment and severity in children with Asperger syndrome / Claudia HILTON in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 1-4 (October/December 2007)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 1-4 (October/December 2007) . - p.339-349 Titre : Relationship between motor skill impairment and severity in children with Asperger syndrome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Claudia HILTON, Auteur ; Georgiana HERZBERG, Auteur ; Carol REED, Auteur ; Max ITO, Auteur ; Patricia LAVESSER, Auteur ; Lyndsay WENTE, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.339-349 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Pervasive-developmental-disorder Autism-spectrum-disorder Manual-dexterity Ball-skills Balance-skill Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined the correlation between severity and motor impairment in children with Asperger syndrome (AS). Children, ages 6–12 with AS (N = 51) and a control group of typical children (N = 56), were assessed using the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) and the Movement Assessment Battery For Children (MABC). A bivariate correlational design was used to compare the scores (Spearman rank correlational coefficient). Significant differences were seen between typical, mild to moderate and severe categories of SRS scores, based on the Kruskal–Wallis one-way analysis of variance by ranks (p < .05). Strong correlations were found between the MABC motor impairment levels and the SRS severity levels. This study adds a clearer understanding of the relationship between motor impairment and severity for children with AS. The degree of correlation indicates that motor skill impairment is a function of severity within AS.

Relationship between social competence and sensory processing in children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders / Claudia HILTON in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 1-2 (April/June 2007)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 1-2 (April/June 2007) . - p.164-173 Titre : Relationship between social competence and sensory processing in children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Claudia HILTON, Auteur ; Kathleen GRAVER, Auteur ; Patricia LAVESSER, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.164-173 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asperger's-disorder Social-responsiveness Pervasive-developmental-disorders Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examines the relationship between social competence and sensory processing in children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders. Methodology Children, ages 6–10 (N = 36), with high functioning autism spectrum disorders were assessed using the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) and the Sensory Profile (SP). A bivariate correlational design was used to compare the scores (Spearman Rank Correlational Coefficient). Results Significant differences were seen between mild to moderate and severe categories of SRS scores, based on Mann–Whitney U test (p < .05). Moderate to strong correlations were found between the SRS scores and all four sensory processing quadrant scores. Conclusions This study adds a clearer understanding of the relationship between sensory processing and social competence for children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders. The degree of correlation indicates that sensory processing is a function of severity within autism spectrum disorders and may be an important factor to consider when addressing the social performance of these children.
