Health-related quality of life in children with high-functioning autism / Marie-Christine POTVIN in Autism, 19-1 (January 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 19-1 (January 2015) . - p.14-19 Titre : Health-related quality of life in children with high-functioning autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marie-Christine POTVIN, Auteur ; Laurie SNIDER, Auteur ; Patricia A. PRELOCK, Auteur ; Sharon WOOD-DAUPHINEE, Auteur ; Eva KEHAYIA, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.14-19 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asperger disorder  autism  autistic disorder  health-related quality of life  pervasive developmental disorder; Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The health-related quality of life of school-aged children with high-functioning autism is poorly understood. The objectives of this study were to compare the health-related quality of life of children with high-functioning autism to that of typically developing peers and to compare child-self and parent-proxy reports of health-related quality of life of children. A cross-sectional study of children with high-functioning autism (n = 30) and peers (n = 31) was conducted using the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 Generic Core Scales. Children with high-functioning autism had significantly poorer health-related quality of life than peers whether reported by themselves (p < .001) or their parents (p < .001), although disagreement (intra-class coefficient = ?.075) between children and parental scores suggested variance in points of view. This study specifically investigated health-related quality of life in children with high-functioning autism as compared to a sample of peers, from the child’s perspective. It strengthens earlier findings that children with high-functioning autism experience poorer health-related quality of life than those without this disorder and points to the importance of clinicians working with families to identify areas in a child’s life that promote or hinder their sense of well-being.

Recreational Participation of Children with High Functioning Autism / Marie-Christine POTVIN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-2 (February 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 43-2 (February 2013) . - p.445-457 Titre : Recreational Participation of Children with High Functioning Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marie-Christine POTVIN, Auteur ; Laurie SNIDER, Auteur ; Patricia A. PRELOCK, Auteur ; Eva KEHAYIA, Auteur ; Sharon WOOD-DAUPHINEE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.445-457 Langues : (Eng) Mots-clés : Recreation  Leisure  Autism  Autistic disorder  Asperger disorder  Pervasive developmental disorder Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The recreation of children with High Functioning Autism (HFA) is not well understood. The objective of this cross-sectional study was to compare the recreational engagement of children with HFA and their typically developing peers. Children with HFA (n = 30) and peers (n = 31) were similar on key characteristics that may impact recreation except those related to the HFA attributes. Children with HFA differed from peers in terms of diversity (p = .002), social aspects (p = .006) and locations (p .001) of recreation. The two groups were not statistically different in personal intensity (p = .684), enjoyment (p = .239) or preferences (p = .788) of recreation. A recreational profile was developed to benefit parents and clinicians in supporting the recreation of these children.
