A comparative study of the marital relationship between parents with children with autism and those with children without autism / Caitlin E. WALSH in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 14-1 (May 2013)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 14-1 (May 2013) . - p.28-33 Titre : A comparative study of the marital relationship between parents with children with autism and those with children without autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Caitlin E. WALSH, Auteur ; K. Daniel O’LEARY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.28-33 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Caitlin Walsh s a Clinical Psychology student and K Daniel O’Leary s a Professor at Stony Brook University, New York. In this paper, they report on a large-scale study which explored the nature of the marital relationship for 475 mothers of children with autism and 62 mothers of typically developing children. As they state, there are often increased demands and stresses on parents of children with a disability and some evidence to suggest that parents of children with autism experience even more stress than those with other types of special need. It is likely therefore that the relationship between the parents is also affected. The authors do in fact find that there are generally more difficulties in the marital relationship of those parents with a child with autism, but that most of these parents stay married and also report that the experience has strengthened their relationships in some cases and they have experienced positive emotions as well as having difficult times. The authors end by recommending that professionals take more account of the effect of autism on the whole family and to consider the extent to which the services they offer add to the stresses within the family or reduce these.

Pain as a predictor of sleep problems in youth with autism spectrum disorders / Megan E. TUDOR in Autism, 19-3 (April 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 19-3 (April 2015) . - p.292-300 Titre : Pain as a predictor of sleep problems in youth with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Megan E. TUDOR, Auteur ; Caitlin E. WALSH, Auteur ; Emile C. MULDER, Auteur ; Matthew D. LERNER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.292-300 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism  communication  pain  sleep problems Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Evidence suggests that pain interferes with sleep in youth with developmental disabilities. This study examined the relationship between pain and sleep problems in a sample of youth with parent-reported autism spectrum disorder (N = 62). Mothers reported on standardized measures of pain and sleep problems. Youth demonstrated atypically high levels of both observed pain and sleep problems. Pain predicted overall sleep disturbance and three specific sleep problems: sleep duration, parasomnias, and sleep-disordered breathing. These specific sleep problems were predicted by specific modalities of nonverbal pain communication (e.g. sleep duration problems were predicted by social communication of pain). Effects were consistent across probing of relevant moderators. These findings suggest that comprehensive assessment of both pain and sleep problems may provide important information for medical and behavioral treatment planning for youth with autism spectrum disorder.

Predictors of parent stress in a sample of children with ASD: Pain, problem behavior, and parental coping / Caitlin E. WALSH in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 7-2 (February 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 7-2 (February 2013) . - p.256-264 Titre : Predictors of parent stress in a sample of children with ASD: Pain, problem behavior, and parental coping Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Caitlin E. WALSH, Auteur ; Emile MULDER, Auteur ; Megan E. TUDOR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.256-264 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Pain and illness  Child problem behavior  Parent coping  Parent stress  Quality of life Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Studies have shown that children with ASD have increased severity and incidence of pain symptoms compared to typically developing children and children with other disorders. Pain has also been shown to act as a setting event for problem behavior. Further, problem behavior is one of the biggest impediments to quality of life for families and highly relates to parent stress. This study examined pain and problem behavior as predictors of parent stress and also examined how parenting style interacted with pain and problem behavior to influence parent stress. Results showed that problem behavior was a moderating factor between pain and parent stress and there was a significant interaction between pain and problem behavior predicting stress. An overprotective parenting style also moderated the relationship between pain and parent stress and there was an interaction between the two factors predicting stress. Implications are discussed in terms of treatments that focus on children's behavior and parenting behavior in order to improve quality of life in families of children with ASD.
