Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 5-3 (September 2001) . - p.277-286 Titre : Anxiety in High-Functioning Children with Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Alinda GILLOTT, Auteur ; Fred FURNISS, Auteur ; Ann WALTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.277-286 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : High-functioning children with autism were compared with two control groups on measures of anxiety and social worries. Comparison control groups consisted of children with specific language impairment (SLI) and normally developing children. Each group consisted of 15 children between the ages of 8 and 12 years and were matched for age and gender. Children with autism were found to be most anxious on both measures. High anxiety subscale scores for the autism group were separation anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. These findings are discussed within the context of theories of autism and anxiety in the general population of children. Suggestions for future research are made.

Exploring the Experiences of Parents Whose Child has Received a Diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder in Adulthood / Hannah LEGG in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-1 (January 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 53-1 (January 2023) . - p.205-215 Titre : Exploring the Experiences of Parents Whose Child has Received a Diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder in Adulthood Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Hannah LEGG, Auteur ; Anna TICKLE, Auteur ; Alinda GILLOTT, Auteur ; Sarah WILDE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.205-215 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is a growing trend of adult diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Research has found that diagnosis can prompt a process of sense-making which may be disrupted by lack of post-diagnostic support. Given the continued involvement of many parents in supporting their adult son or daughter with ASD, it is vital to understand their experiences to meet their needs in adapting to the diagnosis. Eleven parents of recently diagnosed adults participated in semi-structured interviews which were analysed thematically. Findings demonstrate that the new knowledge of diagnosis facilitates changes in attributions, interactions and relationships, but can result in unmet emotional and relational support needs. Findings are relevant to those involved in adult diagnosis, and the provision of post-diagnostic support.
