Brief Report Prevalence of Autism Spectrum Conditions in Children Aged 5-11 Years in Cambridgeshire, UK / Fiona J. SCOTT in Autism, 6-3 (September 2002)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 6-3 (September 2002) . - p.231-237 Titre : Brief Report Prevalence of Autism Spectrum Conditions in Children Aged 5-11 Years in Cambridgeshire, UK Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Fiona J. SCOTT, Auteur ; Simon BARON-COHEN, Auteur ; Patrick BOLTON, Auteur ; Carol BRAYNE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.231-237 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The study aimed to establish prevalence of the broader autistic spectrum, including Asperger syndrome, in 5- to 11-year-olds in Cambridgeshire, UK. Cases of diagnosed autism spectrum condition (ASC) in children who were in Cambridgeshire schools and aged between 5 and 11 years on 31 December 1999 were sought using public records, screening instruments, educational psychology and special educational needs coordinator (SENCO) records. We report a prevalence of ASC in the age group 5-11 years of almost 0.6 percent (57 in 10,000). This is 11 times higher than the rate of classic autism but in line with other recent national and international rates for the broader spectrum. In the responding mainstream schools the prevalence was 0.33 percent. In the responding special school population it was 12.5 percent. The overall sex ratio of the children with ASC replicated findings for classical autism of 4:1 (M:F), but in those children being educated in mainstream schools the sex ratio was 8:1 (M:F).

The CAST (Childhood Asperger Syndrome Test): Preliminary Development of a UK Screen for Mainstream Primary-School-Age Children / Fiona J. SCOTT in Autism, 6-1 (March 2002)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 6-1 (March 2002) . - p.9-31 Titre : The CAST (Childhood Asperger Syndrome Test): Preliminary Development of a UK Screen for Mainstream Primary-School-Age Children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Fiona J. SCOTT, Auteur ; Simon BARON-COHEN, Auteur ; Patrick BOLTON, Auteur ; Carol BRAYNE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.9-31 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The article describes a pilot and follow-up study of the preliminary development of a new tool to screen for Asperger syndrome (AS) and related social and communication conditions (the Childhood Asperger Syndrome Test, CAST) in children aged 4-11 years, in a non-clinical setting. In the pilot study, parents of 13 children with AS and of 37 typically developing children completed the CAST. There were significant differences between the AS and typical sample means. The pilot was used to establish preliminary cut-off scores for the CAST. In the main study, parents of 1150 primary-school-age children were sent the CAST, and 174 took part in the full data analysis. Results suggest that compared with other tools currently available, the CAST may be useful for identifying children at risk for AS and related conditions, in a mainstream non-clinical sample. Further research is ongoing.

The Childhood Asperger Syndrome Test (CAST): Test–retest reliability in a high scoring sample / Carrie ALLISON in Autism, 11-2 (March 2007)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 11-2 (March 2007) . - p.173-185 Titre : The Childhood Asperger Syndrome Test (CAST): Test–retest reliability in a high scoring sample Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Carrie ALLISON, Auteur ; Simon BARON-COHEN, Auteur ; Jo WILLIAMS, Auteur ; Fiona J. SCOTT, Auteur ; Carol STOTT, Auteur ; Patrick BOLTON, Auteur ; Carol BRAYNE, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.173-185 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asperger-syndrome Autism Childhood-screening Pervasive-developmental-disorder Reliability Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The Childhood Asperger Syndrome Test (CAST) is a 37-item parental self-completion questionnaire designed to screen for high-functioning autism spectrum conditions in epidemiological research. The CAST has previously demonstrated good accuracy for use as a screening test, with high sensitivity in studies with primary school aged children in mainstream schools. This study aimed to investigate test–retest reliability of the CAST in a high scoring sample. To this end, 73 parents filled in the second CAST (CAST-2) within approximately 2 months of the first administration of the CAST (CAST-1). Agreement above and below the cut-point of 15 was investigated. The kappa statistic for agreement (<15 versus 15) was 0.41. It was found that 70 percent (95% CI: 58, 80) of children did not move across the cut-point of 15. The correlation between the two test scores was 0.67 (Spearman's rho). The CAST shows moderate test–retest reliability in a high scoring sample, further evidence that it is a relatively robust screening tool for epidemiological research.

The Childhood Autism Spectrum Test (CAST): Sex Differences / Joanna G. WILLIAMS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 38-9 (October 2008)

The present study explored the sex distribution of scores. The CAST was distributed to 11,635 children aged 4–9 years in Cambridgeshire primary schools (UK). 3,370 (29%) were returned. The median score was significantly higher in boys (median test, P < 0.001) (Boys, median = 5 (IQR: 3,8); girls, median = 4 (IQR: 2,6)). There was a predominance of boys (n = 81 (79.4%) over girls (n = 21 (20.6%)) amongst those scoring ≥ 15. Exclusion of children with ASC did not significantly affect the results. We conclude that different profiles of social and communication skills in boys and girls must be taken into account when measuring these skills in the general population.
