Referential communication in children with autism spectrum disorder / SvenOlof DAHLGREN in Autism, 12-4 (July 2008)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 12-4 (July 2008) . - p.335-348 Titre : Referential communication in children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : SvenOlof DAHLGREN, Auteur ; Annika DAHLGREN SANDBERG, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.335-348 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism-spectrum-disorder memory referential-communication theory-of-mind Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Referential communication was studied in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) including children with autism and Asperger syndrome. The aim was to study alternative explanations for the children's communicative problems in such situations. Factors studied were theory of mind, IQ, verbal ability and memory. The main results demonstrated diminished performance in children with autism spectrum disorder, mirroring performance in everyday life, in comparison to verbal IQ and mental age matched typically developing children. Among children with autism spectrum disorders, there was a positive relationship between performance in referential communication and theory of mind. Memory capacity also proved to play a role in success in the task.

Can autistic children read the mind of an animated triangle? / Gemma SALTER in Autism, 12-4 (July 2008)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 12-4 (July 2008) . - p.349-371 Titre : Can autistic children read the mind of an animated triangle? Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Gemma SALTER, Auteur ; David H.

Fifty-six cases and closely matched comparisons were tested. We rated verbal responses according to the length of their descriptions, their appropriateness and the children's use of `mentalizing' terms. Children with ASD used `mentalizing' language to describe the animations as well as comparisons, although the content of their descriptions was significantly less appropriate. Performance on this task was not well correlated with standardized measures of parent-reported behaviour or the child's interactions with an observer. The implications of our results are discussed in relation to previous studies that have used this methodology.

New-onset psychiatric disorders in individuals with autism / Jane HUTTON in Autism, 12-4 (July 2008)

The study is distinctive in its large size, low attrition rate and use of systematic interviews to obtain clinical information. Questionnaires completed by caregivers asked about the development of new psychiatric disorders. For the 39 individuals with a possible new disorder, a detailed psychiatric assessment was undertaken through parental interview. Of all participants, 16 percent developed a definite new psychiatric disorder. A further 6 percent developed a possible new disorder. Five individuals developed an obsessive-compulsive disorder and/or catatonia; eight an affective disorder with marked obsessional features; three complex affective disorders; four more straightforward affective disorders; one a bipolar disorder; and one an acute anxiety state complicated by alcohol excess. There was no case of schizophrenia.

Exploring the relationship between measures of self-esteem and psychological adjustment among adolescents with Asperger Syndrome / Sara WILLIAMSON in Autism, 12-4 (July 2008)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 12-4 (July 2008) . - p.391-402 Titre : Exploring the relationship between measures of self-esteem and psychological adjustment among adolescents with Asperger Syndrome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sara WILLIAMSON, Auteur ; Jaime CRAIG, Auteur ; Richard SLINGER, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.391-402 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adolescence Asperger-syndrome psychological-adjustment self-esteem Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This exploratory study examines the relationships between self-esteem and psychological adjustment among 19 adolescents with Asperger syndrome and 19 typically developing adolescents using a model developed by Harter. The groups were matched for age (mean 13 years), sex (M:F 16:3) and ethnicity (white British). Participants completed four quantitative measures examining self-competencies, social approval, anxiety, depression and self-worth. Findings revealed significant group differences: the adolescents with Asperger syndrome perceived themselves to be less competent in social and athletic domains, and to receive less peer approval. Logistic regression analyses indicated that the variables studied were particularly relevant in distinguishing group differences and worked together in predicting group membership. Indeed the variables in the final model accurately predicted group membership for all individuals in the sample. Exploratory hierarchical multiple regression analyses suggested that the two groups had different patterns of relationships between measures of self-competencies, social approval and psychological outcomes.

Mortality and causes of death in autism spectrum disorders: An update / Svend Erik MOURIDSEN in Autism, 12-4 (July 2008)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 12-4 (July 2008) . - p.403-414 Titre : Mortality and causes of death in autism spectrum disorders: An update Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Svend Erik MOURIDSEN, Auteur ; Henrik BRONNUM-HANSEN, Auteur ; Bente RICH, Auteur ; Torben ISAGER, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.403-414 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism-spectrum-disorders cause-of-death mortality standardized-mortality-ratio Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study compared mortality among Danish citizens with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) with that of the general population. A clinical cohort of 341 Danish individuals with variants of ASD, previously followed over the period 1960—93, now on average 43 years of age, were updated with respect to mortality and causes of death. Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) were calculated for various times after diagnosis. In all, 26 persons with ASD had died, whereas the expected number of deaths was 13.5. Thus the mortality risk among those with ASD was nearly twice that of the general population. The SMR was particularly high in females. The excess mortality risk has remained unchanged since our first study in 1993. Eight of the 26 deaths were associated with epilepsy and four died from epilepsy. Future staff education should focus on better managing of the complex relationships between ASD and physical illness to prevent avoidable deaths.
